Hansi Flick has chosen to start summer signing Dominik Livaković in goal for FC Barcelona's La Liga match against Sevilla on September 19, 2026. This marks Livaković's debut in the league, following Joan Garcia's knee injury. Flick, who previously backed veteran Wojciech Szczęsny, explained that the team needed a change due to the aggressive atmosphere at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium. He also made additional adjustments in the lineup, including keeping Joao Cancelo at left-back and replacing Karim Adeyemi with Anthony Gordon.
