Ass: Ford was late for the Barcelona medical examination today and was severely scolded by Frick

According to the Ass, Ford was late for a medical examination and was scolded by Frick.

Ford's start in the 2025/26 season was not smooth. The young fullback was the only late player of the 35 players who were called to attend the physical examination on Monday morning, surpassing the final deadline at 9 a.m.

This situation particularly made Frick dissatisfied with him. He had extremely strict requirements on punctuality. Conde can testify that he was removed from the starting lineup three times last season because he was late for attending the pre-match tactical meeting.

It is not clear how Flick will punish Ford, a player who violated discipline for the first time this season, but it is certain that being late will not be easily let go. Even if Ford was an invited guest at Yamal’s birthday party, which lasted until late at night, it was hard to excuse him. In fact, Ford has been punished in the first round, and Frick scolded him severely in person.

The present Ford obviously has no capital to "play with fire": his future in the first team is not clear. Conde is an unquestionable starter at the right-back position, and Eric Garcia also performed well as a full-back, which puts Ford from Lamacia in a very embarrassing situation.

Barcelona has never ruled out the possibility of letting Ford leave the team. They believe that Ford needs to develop further in other clubs, especially given that he is only 18 years old, gaining more playing time is the key to his growth for his career. The coaching staff also does not rule out the rental as the most suitable solution. After all, Ford is in the position of the unshakable starter, as long as Conde is not as late as Ford.
