Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has heaped praise on Premier League club Liverpool, calling them one of his favourite teams in the world right now, according to Sportskeeda. The German boss, who took over at the Camp Nou last year, has been impressed by the Reds' dominant form this season, and believes they are one of the top contenders for the UEFA Champions League trophy.

Flick's comments came during a recent press conference, where he was asked about the teams that could potentially win the Champions League this season. The Barcelona boss was quick to praise Liverpool, saying: "When I look at Liverpool, I see a team with incredible power. They are one of my favourite teams in the world right now." He also acknowledged that Liverpool are doing well, but noted that there are other good teams competing in the tournament, saying: "We are doing well, but there are very good teams that are also doing well, and we are contending on three fronts."


Liverpool have indeed been in impressive form this season, losing just two games across all competitions and competing on all four fronts. They currently sit atop the Premier League table, and have also reached the FA Cup fourth round and the EFL Cup semi-finals. In the Champions League, they are at the top of the league-stage table with six wins in six games, and are looking strong contenders to win the trophy.


Flick's praise for Liverpool is likely to be seen as a compliment by the Reds' players and staff, and may even serve as motivation for them to continue performing at a high level. The Barcelona boss is known for his tactical acumen and his ability to get the best out of his players, and his comments suggest that he has a high level of respect for Liverpool's quality and competitiveness.
