Hansi Flick is backing Jules Kounde to “take care” of Nico Williams when Barcelona come up against Athletic Club on Saturday in La Liga.
Barca spent the summer trying to sign Nico but appear to have given up on their efforts to land the Spain star.
The Catalans will now have to find a way to stop the forward on Saturday night, with Flick confident Kounde can do the business at Montjuic.
“On this side we have an experienced player, so I can say that Jules will take care of him,” he told reporters.
