Rummenigge praises Barcelona's Laporta and Flick

Karl Heinz Rummenigge, a Bayern Munich legend, spoke highly of FC Barcelona's president Joan Laporta and coach Hansi Flick in an interview with As. He praised Laporta's conviction and highlighted their close friendship, noting that Laporta had been his vice‑president at the European Club Association (ECA).

Rummenigge recalled warning Laporta about the club's delicate financial situation before his return, but said Laporta, a devoted fan, was determined to move forward. The legend said time has vindicated Laporta's decisions.
