FC Barcelona midfielder Gavi is ready to start the match as a starter according to his coach Hansi Flick.
This evening, FC Barcelona travel to Celta Vigo for the start of La Liga matches, looking to win and maintain their leadership position. The club faces absences and the management of players returning from injury. This is the case for Gavi, which is gaining more and more minutes. The question that now arises is whether he will start. Thus, during the last press conference before the match, a question on the possibility of seeing him start was asked to the coach, Flick, who chose not to reveal information to the opposing team: ” Yes, he can start now “, he said. However, Flick wants to take his time
The preferred gradual return
Although the Catalan player can start, as Flick reported, he will favor a gradual return by offering him more and more playing time. This evening, Gavi has the ability to start but should come on in the second half, the coach not wanting to impose pressure on his midfielder. It is also important to consider that Barca are well aware of Gavi's enthusiastic character, and the club preferred to wait until the level of excitement around his return stabilized before granting him a starting role. The coach also spoke of Gavi's versatility. “He can play all positions and I'm sure he would succeed in all of them “, he said. Which means that a repositioning will not be ruled out.
