Overview

• The club says Thiago’s remit is to provide experience in tactical matters and in preparing first‑team training sessions.
• He joined Thursday’s session at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper in Sant Joan Despí as several internationals returned to work with the squad.
• Thiago had already worked with Flick during last summer’s preseason, including traveling on Barcelona’s U.S. tour.
• Reports indicate he will also support dressing‑room relations and player communication, serving as a link between the squad and a largely German assistant group.
• El Periódico reports he agreed a non‑travel commitment with Flick to accommodate family stability.
