Hansi Flick revealed after Barcelona’s huge win over Valencia that Gavi has given up a chance to come on as a substitute and had told the coach to put Pablo Torre on instead.
The German coach duly obliged but made it clear of his admiration for Gavi’s stance.
“The situation that impressed me the most was when I spoke with Gavi. I wanted to put him on for the last 15 minutes, and he told me no, that I should put Pablo Torre in instead. That is incredible, it is fantastic,” he told reporters.
