The season has been perfect for Barça and the team led by Flick has won La Liga, Copa del Rey, and the Supercopa. This treble has not only restored hope to the culé fans, but has also confirmed that the project led by the German coach is bearing fruit.
One of the keys to success has undoubtedly been the outstanding performance of the players trained at La Masia. The blaugrana academy has once again played a leading role in the first team, something that had been missed in previous years. With Flick, the young players have not only had opportunities, but they have replied with maturity and quality, establishing themselves as essential pillars of the team.
The 2007 generation: the soul of Barça
Among the names that shine the most within this new crop is the 2007 generation, a group that is making its mark. Pau Cubarsí, Lamine Yamal, and Marc Bernal are the main representatives of this golden class. These are players with character, technical quality, and a personality that defies their youth.
At just 17 years old (17 años), Lamine has taken on the leadership role at key moments, becoming the most decisive player for Barça this season. Meanwhile, Pau Cubarsí has been an irreplaceable piece in Flick's system, providing solidity, good judgment, and a surprising tactical maturity. Marc Bernal, although he was injured, has also shown flashes that inspire optimism.
Landry Farré, the next to make the leap
The impact of the 2007 generation doesn't stop there, as a new name is starting to gain momentum in the corridors: Landry Farré. He is an 18-year-old (18 años) center-back, born in Ivory Coast. His development has been steady and both the sporting management and the coaching staff are very fond of his profile.
Tall, strong, with good ball distribution and remarkable anticipation skills, Farré has all the qualities to succeed. Hansi Flick already has him on his radar and sees in him a possible natural replacement for the first team's defense. His presence in training sessions with the senior squad has left a good impression, and his progress suggests that he will not take long to make the definitive leap.
Preseason with the first team and a promising future
According to El Nacional, Barça's plan is clear and Landry Farré will do preseason with the first team this summer. This will be his big opportunity to convince Flick and the rest of the coaching staff that he can be useful right away. His performance in these training sessions and preparation matches will be key to determining whether he stays or if a loan move is sought for him.
The possibility that Farré stays with Hansi Flick for the entire season is not ruled out. In fact, there are voices within the blaugrana club who are in favor of integrating him permanently into the first team's dynamics, just as happened with Lamine Yamal.
