Flick Backs Gavi Amid Barcelona Playing Time Battle
16 Sep
Summary
- Hansi Flick reaffirms Gavi's crucial role for Barcelona.
- Gavi seeks more playing time amidst strong midfield competition.
- Flick emphasizes squad depth and Gavi's commitment to training.
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has underscored the significance of midfielder Gavi to the team's plans. Flick stated that all players in the squad are vital, including Gavi, who exhibits great ambition and a desire to play. Gavi began the season's opening La Liga match but was sidelined by an injury sustained during that game. Although now available, he has seen limited action in recent league fixtures and played only seven minutes in the Champions League against Feyenoord.
Despite intense competition from teammates like Pedri, Rodri, Fermin Lopez, and Dani Olmo, Flick insists Gavi remains an integral part of the squad. The coach noted that the team is performing well but requires the commitment of every player. Flick wants Gavi to maintain his positive attitude and strong training regimen. Gavi is included in the squad for Barcelona's upcoming La Liga match against Racing de Santander. Currently, Frenkie de Jong and Roony Bardghji are the only players unavailable due to knee injuries.
