Barcelona have prioritised the contract renewal of teenage midfield sensation Gavi after securing economic approval for the transfer window.
The 17-year-old enjoyed a remarkable breakthrough campaign with the Blaugrana this year, joining Pedri, 19, in helping to revolutionise the side’s midfield. The talented teenager is however out of contract at the Camp Nou next summer and the club are keen to tie him down to a new long-term deal.
Widely regarded as one of the best young players in the world, Gavi made 47 appearances for Barca last season, scoring twice, and establishing himself as a regular starter in the midfield for Xavi Hernandez’s side. The combative midfielder has also been capped 10 times for the Spanish national side.
