This season, PSG and Barça have established themselves as two of the best teams in Europe. Both have reached the Champions League semifinals with similar styles. Luis Enrique's team faces Arsenal and already won in the first leg, while the team led by Flick measures forces with Inter after a 3-3 draw.
The possibility of a final between PSG and Barça is not only attractive for soccer reasons but also for symbolic ones. It would be a final with Barça DNA, with two coaches who share a common soccer root based on possession play, high pressure, and tactical intelligence. Luis Enrique, a former player and former Barça coach, has transferred part of that philosophy to Paris, while Hansi Flick has managed to reinterpret it in Barcelona, adapting it to his German style.
PSG Is a Great Team
In the case of PSG, the season has been a revolution. No longer with Kylian Mbappé and without the media figures that starred in previous years, the Parisian team has opted for a more collective and balanced project. Players like Ousmane Dembélé or Vitinha have stepped up, and the team has gained solidity.
The result is a PSG less dependent on individualities and more committed to the team idea. Pressure, quick ball circulation, and controlled verticality are hallmarks that have led the French team to overcome key stages in the Champions League. This transformation has convinced critics and positioned PSG as a serious contender to conquer Europe, this time with a more mature approach and less focused on stars.
Luis Enrique Sets His Sights on Barça's Squad
Curiously, PSG has reportedly set their sights on Gavi. According to the portal 'Madrid-Barcelona', the Parisian club is very interested in acquiring the services of the young Andalusian midfielder. His character, dedication, and maturity have made him an untouchable piece for Flick, although as a substitute.
There's No Discussion with Gavi
However, from Barça's environment, there is no intention to negotiate his departure. Gavi is considered non-transferable, and he is part of the core on which the new project is being built. Moreover, the player himself has expressed on numerous occasions his desire to stay for life at the club that trained him.
His emotional bond with Barça and his commitment on and off the field are clear signs that his future is at Barça. Not even a significant offer from PSG would change the blaugrana team's mind. Gavi is more than a player: he is a symbol of Barça's present and future.
