Deco says final against Real Madrid 'always special'

The FC Barcelona sporting director speaks to Club media and looks ahead to Sunday's final

The FC Barcelona sporting director Deco could not hide his ambition for the team when he spoke to Club media on Friday. "We want to challenge for all the trophies," explained the former Barça player. 

"It's always special playing in a final against Real Madrid. They are in good form and they played really well in the semi-final against Atlético," said Deco about Sunday's opponents. On Barça's form the Brazilian born former Portuguese international added: "We played well against Osasuna. We are at an important moment and we need to be secure in the way we play." 

For the sporting director, the challenge is clear. "We want to win the Super Cup and then fight for the league, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League," he added. 

To round off, Deco mentioned the downside of Thursday's semi-final win, the injury to Raphinha: "This season we have had problems with injuries. It is very demanding and it's a shame to lose Raphinha but we do have Pedri back."
