Gavi wants to stay at Barcelona and fight to win back a bigger role in the team. According to Marca, the midfielder has no intention of leaving the Catalan club despite interest from Bayern Munich and Napoli, two sides who have enquired about his situation.

Barca's stance is also the same. Deco, the club's sporting director, would not intend to open the door to a sale, while the player's camp and the club believe his future remains tied to the Camp Nou. The academy graduate, who came through La Masia after arriving from Real Betis in 2015, has made 175 appearances for the first team.

The sporting context, however, has not been straightforward for the Spain international. This season he has played 229 minutes across nine matches, five in LaLiga and four in the Champions League, with only two starts. In midfield, Hansi Flick is backing Pedri and Rodri as his main pairing, with Marc Bernal the leading alternative when either is unavailable.

Competition is no lighter further forward either. Fermín López and Dani Olmo are sharing minutes in the No 10 role, while Anthony Gordon and Karim Adeyemi are options on the left-hand side. That situation explains why Gavi is not getting the prominence he wants, although reports suggest he remains motivated and believes he can earn more game time over the course of the season.

Fantasy angle

From a Fantasy perspective, Gavi is currently a minutes risk. His name and his ability to contribute across several categories remain appealing, but his immediate value is limited by the fierce competition for a starting place. The possible build-up of fixtures after the November international break could lead to more rotation, although that should be treated as a possibility and not as a guarantee of a starting spot.

We would not recommend signing the Los Palacios player and would look for more reliable options instead.
