Hansi Flick’s Barcelona have started the 2026/27 season in sensational fashion, and the German coach now has a historic benchmark from Pep Guardiola’s era firmly within sight. 👀🏆
Barça opened the campaign with seven consecutive victories, setting the club’s best-ever start to a season. The run included wins over Elche, Athletic Club, Rayo Vallecano, Valencia, Feyenoord, Levante and Racing Santander, with Barça scoring 33 goals while conceding just seven. 🤯⚽🔥
But there is an even bigger target ahead.
Pep Guardiola holds Barcelona’s record for the longest winning streak in La Liga, with 16 consecutive victories. Flick’s current team would therefore need to keep winning for several more league matches to reach and potentially surpass that legendary mark. 🏆👑
Flick has already shown that his Barça side can produce extraordinary runs. During the 2025/26 campaign, his team reached 11 consecutive wins in all competitions, matching the club’s second-best winning streak, a mark previously achieved under Guardiola in 2008/09 and Luis Enrique in 2014/15. 🔥
The German coach, however, isn’t obsessed with records. When asked about Barcelona’s perfect start, Flick made his priorities clear: he wants to win matches rather than chase records. 🎯
That mentality could make the challenge even more interesting. With Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Pedri and the rest of Barça’s attacking firepower firing, the Blaugrana have already turned their opening weeks into a record-breaking spectacle. 💫🔵🔴
Seven wins are already history. Sixteen is Pep’s legendary La Liga benchmark.
Now the question is whether Flick’s Barça can keep the winning machine running long enough to rewrite another chapter of Barcelona history. 👀🔥🏆
