Hansi Flick's Season at FC Barcelona Has Brought New Dynamics to the Squad, and one of the most affected is Gavi. The young Andalusian midfielder, who was indisputable in other seasons, is seeing his prominence decrease in this new cycle. The competition in the midfield is fierce, and names like Frenkie de Jong or the homegrown player Marc Casadó seem to be ahead in the German coach's preferences.

Pablo Páez Gavira is aware of this reality,  despite his usual dedication and competitive character, the player accepts that, for now, he doesn't start as a regular. Flick values his intensity greatly, but he seeks more positional profiles with greater control of the game's pace, an area where Casadó has positively surprised during the preseason. Added to this is De Jong's hierarchy, who has the full confidence of the new coaching staff.
