Hansi Flick FC Barcelona salary, contract details and net worth in 2024
But the management has made it plain that one of the biggest club legends will not return for the upcoming campaign, and Hansi Flick has emerged as the front-runner to succeed the club veteran in the dugout. Although there was only conjecture surrounding the German’s appointment, SPORT has recently revealed that Flick’s position at Barcelona is virtually assured.
Flick’s possible contract
According to our sources, the Barcelona administration is willing to provide the former Bayern Munich boss a two-season contract with the possibility of an additional extension for one year.
Flick will earn a gross salary of €6m (€3m after tax), about half of what Xavi was earning this season and will earn a €1m bonus if Barcelona win the Champions League, and a €750k bonus for bringing La Liga back to Camp Nou, compared to €300k and €150k respectively for Xavi. His staff will be paid a total of 3 million euros annually.
Flick’s current net worth is understood to be $20 million and he was making $7.08m per year for his services as the head coach of the Germany national team.
On June 30th, he is anticipated to take over Xavi’s place and start his ambitious endeavour. Flick turned down offers from Manchester United and Chelsea to sign with Barcelona, demonstrating his unwavering devotion to the Catalan club.
As per sources, the appointment was finalized and the deal with the tactician was essentially confirmed during the meeting with Flick and Pini Zahavi on Wednesday. However, a statement is anticipated soon and is contingent only on Xavi’s departure being finalized.
Can Flick take Barcelona back to its glory days?
There is no doubt that Flick understands that joining Barcelona will present a difficult obstacle to overcome. He is fully aware of the club’s financial predicament and will thus accept a fair salary, with a bigger payout contingent on his sporting prowess.
When it comes to football tactics, Flick excels in pressing and counterattacking, whereas FC Barcelona prefers ball-possession football. Therefore, it’s difficult to predict today if he will succeed or not, but it will surely be interesting to see if the project works in favour of the club.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE 🚨

Who will be the possible first signing during Flick’s tenure?
Flick has already been in contact with the management to discuss potential acquisitions and transfers, and he is even rumoured to have approved some departures. The new Barcelona manager has given his approval to the first summer signing. Guido Rodriguez has been a topic of discussion between the sports director Deco and the former head coach of Bayern Munich and Germany regarding the club’s transfer ambitions.
In recent weeks, Barcelona and the Real Betis pivot came to a pre-contract agreement; nevertheless, the deal has been put on hold because of the unpredictability surrounding the management position. But now that Flick is expected to succeed Xavi, it may move forward, particularly because Sport has revealed that the German coach has given his approval for the Rodriguez trade to be finalized.
According to the same report, Flick will sign a two-year contract, and because of the club’s persistent financial difficulties, a relatively low pay has been agreed upon. How many more players Barcelona signs during the summer transfer window is still to be determined. Keep checking the article for further updates.
