Quinton Fortune Warns Flick About Mourinho’s El Clásico Mind Games

Quinton Fortune Warns Flick About Mourinho’s El Clásico Mind Games — 1 of 4
1 / 4

Former Manchester United midfielder Quinton Fortune has warned Barcelona manager Hansi Flick to prepare for José Mourinho’s renowned mind games when Real Madrid face Barcelona next season. Fortune said Mourinho could unsettle Flick if the Barcelona coach allows the rivalry and pressure of El Clásico to affect his focus. He believes Mourinho will try to shield his players from scrutiny while placing added pressure on Barcelona. Flick has enjoyed a strong record against Real Madrid since taking over Barcelona, winning six of seven El Clásico meetings and helping the club secure the last two La Liga titles. Mourinho will be aiming to end that run and restore Madrid’s advantage in the rivalry.
