Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick was this evening spotted in an in-depth discussion with a young member of his squad.
As much came on the back of Barcelona’s return to action on the continent.
The Blaugrana were of course back on the pitch a short time ago, welcoming Ligue 1 outfit Stade Brestois to Catalunya’s capital for a Champions League clash.
When all was said and done, Barca emerged on the right side of a 3-0 result, owing to a brace on the part of Robert Lewandowski, and a further strike from Dani Olmo.
Forced to watch on from the sidelines en route to as much, though, was Lamine Yamal.
Wide-man Lamine has now missed his side’s last three outings across all competitions, owing to a problematic ankle injury.
After the Spaniard made his way down onto the Montjuïc pitch following the full-time whistle on Tuesday, boss Hansi Flick was in turn ready and waiting, to provide some words of encouragement and advice to Lamine.
Amid the expectation that the 17-year-old is in line to be given the green light to mark his return to the pitch against Las Palmas this weekend, his manager was spotted in a lengthy conversation with Lamine, footage of which is showcased below:
