The boss is not paying attention to the drama at the capital

Barcelona boss Hansi Flick has made it crystal clear—he's not losing any sleep over the drama unfolding at Real Madrid ahead of Sunday's blockbuster El Clásico.

While the Spanish capital has been buzzing with chaos this week—from Kylian Mbappé's ongoing saga to a shocking training ground altercation between Aurélien Tchouaméni and Fede Valverde that left the Uruguayan midfielder hospitalized and ruled out of the match—Flick is keeping his eyes firmly on his own squad.

"It happens all over the world. Not just at Real Madrid," Flick said with a shrug during Saturday's press conference. "I was a little surprised, but I don't care. It's not my club. It's not my team. I don't think about it."

Instead, the German tactician is laser-focused on what matters most: securing a statement victory at the Camp Nou. "Our goal is to win at home. We have a fantastic team, and the fans support us. But it's a Clásico for them too, and everyone will give 100%. They want to win. The Clásico is important for everyone."

With Barcelona riding high on a stellar campaign, Flick is urging his players to block out the noise and trust their game plan. "For me, what we need to do is play and focus on our game. We've had a fantastic season and I want to see that tomorrow. I know the tension is high. It's the best that Spanish football has to offer. We want to play as a team, as a unit. I'm not focused on anything else."

As the two giants prepare to collide, one thing is certain: Flick's Barcelona won't be distracted by the storm brewing in Madrid. Whether that focus translates into three points is a question only Sunday's showdown can answer.
