Gavi: “I’ve always been clear that I wanted to succeed at Barca”

Date:

The young midfielder, barely 18 years old, signed his new contract with Joan Laporta until 2026 with the culé club.

“It’s something I’ve dreamed about since I was little. We’ve always been clear that I wanted to succeed here and I’m very happy for today,” said Gavi in ​​his first words after signing the contract extension that binds him with Barcelona until 2026. The young midfielder, barely 18 years old, put an end to the controversy over his extension once and for all and faces his first contract as a professional player with a €1,000 million termination clause, an armor worthy of a superstar is.

Important day costume, smile from ear to ear and satisfaction for the tasks performed. For example, Joan Laporta and Pablo Páez Gavira, better known as Gavi, were on the field at Camp Nou. The two had something important to say to the fans who showed up there in an open door event and the first to launch was the maximum president of the culé. “It is a historic day. I want to thank Gavi because it is a very happy day for Barça, for him and for all the Catalans. Also a special thank you to Iván de la Peña, because when Gavi was playing with Betis, he had a lot of proposals and he encouraged him to come to Barcelona,” he assured in a wink to the player’s representative, with whom he spoke during the match. negotiation.

And it is that to achieve this happy result, a path plagued with difficulties had to be walked. Gavi burned stages, one after the other, first with Ronald Koeman, then with Luis Enrique and finally with Xavi, a coach for whom he has become an undisputed midfield player. That meant that the claims of Iván de la Peña and those of the club remained diametrically opposed. It showed the patience of Barcelona and that of a footballer who, after a few months of tug-of-war, has reached a middle ground that satisfies all parties.

The act, which was brief, also had a moment to reflect on Gavi’s time in Barça’s youth academy. Laporta handed him a shirt numbered 186 in reference to the place Los Palacios occupies in the total number of La Masia players who have played for Barça’s first team. «La Masia is something unique, you have to live there. I am very grateful to everyone because since I was little they taught me to work and to be humble,” the player said upon receiving the gift.

Gavi’s extension allows Barcelona to foreclose one of its most promising players and does so with a termination clause that has already become a modus operandi within the culé club. If you want to get the young midfielder without negotiating, you will have to scratch your head and pay a whopping €1,000 million, an amount identical to the amount the entity led by Laporta has set for six other players. The ‘1000 club’ consists of Gavi, Araujo, Ansu Fati, Pedri, Koundé, Raphinha and Ferran Torres.
