Hansi Flick enthusiastically applauds Jules Koundé's latest gesture: 'He's a c...'

The coach is proud of his squad and the Frenchman's latest gesture has given much to talk about

Hansi Flick is one of the best coaches in the world, and the performance he is achieving with his current club makes it clear. The German has turned Barça back into a well-oiled machine, and the fans are enjoying it. In fact, the fact that the culés are still alive in the Champions League is one of the greatest possible joys.

Barça has gone through tough times in recent years, but it is already on the right track and nothing can derail it. Even if they are left out of some competition, the project is already solid and underway. There are many relevant players in the squad: Jules Koundé, who is one of them, has made a gesture applauded by Hansi Flick.

Jules Koundé's Moment

Jules Koundé arrived at Barça as a center-back with the hope of establishing himself in the starting '11' and being key in all possible matches. In fact, he did and played one of the best seasons as a center-back, but it went awry. With Xavi Hernández, the Frenchman started playing poorly and ended up sitting on the bench.

Xavi believed he couldn't waste Jules Koundé and decided that moving him to full-back would be the best option. Hansi Flick has been able to take advantage of the decisions made in the past. As usual, the full-back is not perfect, and one of his flaws has been what has left him on the bench on several occasions.

Jules Koundé is not a punctual person, something Flick hates; he can't stand waiting and thinks it's one of the greatest signs of disrespect. Even so, the manager has forgiven the tardiness but has forced the player to remedy it. Everything has ended well, and the German has concluded that Jules is a star.

Jules Koundé's Solution

Jules Koundé has asked the security members who follow the team to keep him informed of the time. It seems the defender has trouble with the clock and has asked to be notified 15 minutes before each meeting. With this, the full-back's tardiness has ended, and now there are no more arguments or problems.

Hansi Flick is aware that Jules Koundé is key and had to remedy the situation. Finally, everything points to there never being problems in meetings again.
