Everything is going at the speed of light in the case of Pablo Gavira, alias Gavi. This very young Sevillian, only 17 years old, is now officially the earliest Spanish player in the history of the national team and he is also on the way to breaking more than one precocity record at FC Barcelona, with the permission of Ansu Fati.
Right now, Gavi is an indisputable player for Ronald Koeman, as evidenced by the fact that he has four consecutive starts in La Liga, to which we must add two more with the Spanish team in the Nations League.
Nevertheless, he has not yet started in the Champions League, a situation that will surely break this Wednesday against Dynamo Kiev at the Camp Nou. And is that Pedri’s absence due to injury, and his excellent performance, have opened the doors for him wide on Koeman’s eleven.
In this Tuesday’s session, Koeman was able to count on all the men available, except for the injured Pedri, Araújo and Braithwaite. Nor will he be able to count on this Wednesday’s game with Eric Garcia, sanctioned, as well as with Dembélé, that despite being in the final stretch of his recovery, he is not yet scheduled to be discharged.
