Barca vice president with harsh criticism
The banner referred to Barcelona’s new coach Hansi Flick, who has been in charge of the Spanish top club since this season. Images of it appeared both on the social media service X and during the broadcast of the streaming service DAZN.
The action was sharply criticized on social media. Barca vice president Maria Elena Fort condemned the poster in the strongest possible terms, describing the action in a message on X as “undignified. Shameful. Disgusting and sad that someone who claims to love the club acts like this. Everything has its limits. It must never happen again. Never again.”
