Barcelona prepare to face Olympiacos in the Champions League after a 2-1 La Liga win over Girona and a recent European defeat to PSG. Fermin López returned from injury in the Girona match and appeared at the pre-match press conference alongside manager Hansi Flick. López expects a difficult game and emphasizes the need to regain confidence and focus solely on the upcoming match. He described frequent injuries affecting selection, affirmed his importance both as a starter and substitute, and said Flick asks him to press high, play with ease, create openings, and adapt to multiple attacking roles.
"I think it will be a very difficult match; obviously, it's the Champions League, and we're coming off a loss to PSG. We have to play well, regain our confidence, and win."
"We're not thinking beyond tomorrow. It's a very important match, we're coming off a loss to PSG, and we have to focus on tomorrow, play our best game, and get back to winning ways."
"There have been a lot of injuries, and we have to play with what we have, which are very good players. I've always felt like a very important player, both as a starter and as a substitute. I have to play when the manager decides and give my best,"
"He asks me to press high up the pitch, to play with ease, to create openings. I try to do my best, and I can play as a winger or attacking midfielder whenever the manager needs me to."
