From the source
Barcelona midfielder Gavi is in the spotlight currently due to a lack of game time at the club under Hansi Flick. The 22-year-old has only made seven appearances in all competitions for Barca in 2026-27, with just two of those being starts.
All of which means there’s already speculation flying around that he’s “very disappointed” with his current situation. There was an expectation that Gavi might start against Alaves at the weekend but he did not feature at all in the 6-1 win for the Catalan giants.
Flick was quizzed on Gavi ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Aston Villa but didn’t offer much in the way of assurances about his playing time going forwards.
