Hansi Flick’s reaction to 16-year-old Toni Fernandez climbing over his seat with dirty boots is going viral

In one of the most wholesome moments of the weekend, La Masia star Toni Fernandez was stared down by Hansi Flick after he stepped on his chair during Barcelona's 5-1 win over Villarreal.

Fernandez, who is widely regarded as one of the most promising talents in Barcelona's youth system, recently became the youngest player in history to score a goal for their reserve team.

At the age of 16 years, one month and 24 days, the young forward netted a spectacular overhead kick in a 3-0 win over Ourense, which sparked plenty of discussion around his undisputed talents.

In fact, earlier this month, Fernandez and his cousin, Guille, were both called up for the club's Champions League clash against AS Monaco following an injury to summer signing Dani Olmo.

Flick opened up about selecting the La Masia youngsters in his pre-match press conference.

"We have the two cousins, two 16-year-old players. I can say that they are ready for the next step and to increase their performance. This is our objective. We have to continue like this," he said.

"They are improving. It is impressive how La Masia makes the players develop. When we need a player from La Masia we know that they have quality, that they are at the [right] level."

He added: "Toni and Guille are at every training session and they are doing very well. I have no doubt that they will play very well.”

Flick's belief in the duo is evident. Toni and Guille were both included in Barca's squad for their recent trip to Villarreal – a game they went onto win thanks to goals from Robert Lewandowski [2], Pablo Torre and Raphinha [2].

They haven't had a taste of first-team action just yet, but Toni Fernandez experienced the intense stare of Flick when he climbed on his chair ahead of kick-off.

As you can see from the footage below, Flick caught the youngster red handed and, after spotting the dirty boot marks in his seat, a hilarious exchange followed.

Here's how fans on social media reacted to the scene.

One said: "His life flashed before his eyes," while another commented: "Nah this is funny. He looks like he's having a blast with the young roster and they seem to love him."

A third wrote: "Flick seems to be forming really good relationships with these young players. Can’t say I saw that coming given how cold he seemed as a Bayern manager."

A fourth commented: "I love the energy at Barcelona right now," and a fifth added: "They respect him so much. The guy won’t do it again."
