Recently, Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen gave an interview to the media in which he said that he would do everything he could to help new head coach Hans-Dieter
Frick
Integration into Spanish life and work.
Ter Stegen said, "If you're not from the local area, then you and your family need to feel comfortable and that's important because then you can have a clear head to make decisions. Flick knows that too, and if something comes up, he knows I'll help him."
"I will help in any way I can, from integrating into a new country to him feeling comfortable in his private life. When we talk about players, we often talk about how quickly we can adapt to a new environment, how quickly we can become part of the city and the country, and it's really the same with coaches."
Ter Stegen also emphasized the importance of learning Spanish, saying, "I think the language is important, you need to have a certain level of communication, especially considering that we have some players in the team who don't speak English, so you need to communicate with them, which is important. Me and Gündoğan and Levan will try to help Frick by communicating his philosophy and instructions to the other players."
Ter Stegen revealed that he and Frick have had a short phone conversation and he believes the welcome given to the new manager will please Frick. "Spain is completely different from Germany, I am happy for him and I wish him all the best because it means all the best for us as well."
