Hansi Flick reveals how Gavi could fit into this Barcelona team | OneFootball

Injuries have ended up making this season more complicated than it should have been for Barcelona. Despite the arrival of Hansi Flick and his attention towards physical preparation, a lot of players have been sidelined. Fortunately for Barcelona, that has not stopped them from performing at a high level.

However, the ideal scenario for Hansi Flick would be to recover his best players as soon as possible. Given how demanding the football calendar is now, it would only be beneficial for Barcelona to have as much squad depth as possible for rotations and alternatives.

Fortunately for the Catalan giants and Hansi Flick, many of the injured and sidelined players are gradually making their return. The likes of Dani Olmo, Fermin Lopez, Wojciech Szczesny, and even Gavi are expected to be available for the team again soon.

In Gavi’s case, there is a lot of anticipation and hope in regards to the young Golden Boy’s return and how exactly he will fit into this team. Hansi Flick, however, already seems to have an answer to that particular question.

As highlighted by Mundo Deportivo, the Barcelona coach revealed the ways in which he could see the be deployed in his team and how his mentality could be a key asset as well, emphasizing on it as he talked about the young player:

“In midfield, there are players who can play in several positions. With Gavi, considering his mentality and how he channels his aggressiveness, he can play in both central midfield positions.”

For many people, Gavi is exactly the kind of player that Hansi Flick would love to use in his team. The youngster’s combination of tenacity, dedication, and technical ability is a unique blend that perfectly fits the kind of system that the German tactician wants to make use of at Barcelona.

Against Sevilla, the game that Barcelona have coming up next, Gavi will likely be present as well. However, it is possible that the young Spaniard will start on the bench and if possible, could end up playing a few minutes for Barça in front of the home crowd.
