Flick is without captain Raphinha for the trip to Turkey and he will be forced to reshuffle his attack as a result.
Brazil international Gabriel Jesus has impressed in limited minutes, with three goals scored, and Flick is ready to start with him in Istanbul after a strong start to life in Catalonia.
"He's ready to play. Whether he plays from the start, which we don't know yet, I will decide after our last training session.
"I'm delighted to have him on our team. It was a bit of a surprise. He's a top-level player, very good for us."
