Gavi is someone who will have the maximum eyeballs on him. Spain has always had a good batch of teenage players. Gavi is just another addition to that. Pedri was another player who was expected to shine at a similar multi-national tournament. Pedri shined at the Euros and now it’s time for Gavi. Gavi has been compared to a few Barcelona legends like Andres Iniesta and now it’s time that Gavi shows that he is better than these legends. His agility and vision are his key strengths.
