Hansi Flick’s arrival at Barcelona has brought about significant changes in the club’s internal culture. Though he may seem calm on the surface, Flick’s attention to detail and firm approach has reshaped the way the team operates.
Since taking charge, he has abolished financial penalties and rewards, while introducing new rules and reinforcing some from Xavi’s earlier tenure.
According to Diario AS, there are ten crucial rules that Barcelona players must now adhere to under Flick’s regime if they want to secure their place in the squad.

Daily weight control
One of the most stringent rules Flick has imposed is daily weight control. Every morning, before the start of training, each player must step on the scales. The results are recorded and evaluated on a weekly basis.
Additionally, Flick has added dental analysis to the regular medical checks, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of each player’s physical condition.
Strict nutrition protocols
While players are not required to eat together, they are expected to follow a strict nutrition plan. The team nutritionist, Silvia Tremoleda, prepares a buffet from which all players must select their meals.
