Barcelona boss Hansi Flick has reportedly agreed to sign a new deal with the Catalan giants.
Flick has made a significant impact since taking over the reins from Xavi last summer, putting the club in contention for a quadruple, all while playing an attractive style of football.
The German claimed his first trophy as Barcelona boss in January when he led the club to Spanish Super Cup glory in Saudi Arabia.
Flick is hoping to add three more pieces of silverware to his collection, with his team firmly in the hunt to win La Liga, Copa del Rey and the Champions League.
They will have the opportunity to claim their second trophy of the season in Saturday's highly-anticipated Copa del Rey final against rivals Real Madrid.

Flick to sign new Barcelona deal
While it remains to be seen whether Barcelona can collect more silverware, the club's hierarchy are already keen to extend Flick's contract, which is set to expire at the end of the 2025-26 season.
According to Spanish outlet Marca, the Blaugrana have already reached an agreement with Flick over a contract extension following productive talks in recent days.
The Barcelona boss is set to extend his deal by a further season to keep him at the club until the summer of 2027.
However, there will not be an imminent announcement to confirm Flick's renewal despite everything being agreed between the two parties.

When will Flick's new contract be announced?
Barcelona will reportedly wait until the end of the season to confirm the deal, partly because they do not want any distractions from the team's efforts to complete a quadruple.
The club's Financial Fair Play situation is also a factor behind the club's decision to hold off on any announcement until the summer.
Barcelona are seemingly hopeful that they will put themselves in a position to officially renew Flick's contract by June 30 by raising €100m (£85m) from the sale of VIP boxes at the new Camp Nou.
La Liga are not prepared to increase Barcelona's salary limit until the VIP boxes have been constructed as part of the renovation works at the club's stadium.
