Brian Farinas waits for chance with Barcelona under Hansi Flick

Summary

Barcelona midfielder Brian Farinas has not yet made a competitive appearance in the 2026-27 season. Initially registered with the first team and wearing the No. 4 shirt, he has been involved in squad selections but remained on the bench for all matches so far. Hansi Flick has opted for more established midfield options, which has kept Farinas from getting minutes. Despite being included in the squad for La Liga and Champions League matches, he is still seeking his first opportunity to contribute. Farinas is focused on training and preparing for the moment he is called upon.
