Xavi explains why Gavi 'doesn't surprise' him despite Man of the Match performance against Sevilla
"Gavi does not surprise me, I follow him every day in training. I don't want to be unfair towards the rest, but maybe he was the best in the match," Xavi said after the Sevilla win.
"The intensity that Gavi plays with is amazing. I hope he continues at this level."
Despite being only 18 years old, Gavi has started in all of Barcelona's four matches this season so far.
Against Sevilla, the midfielder was named Man of the Match by La Liga's sponsors. Gavi was all over the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan pitch, covering 12 km, winning 8/16 duels, making two interceptions, one tackle and one clearance.
