PSG Eyes Gavi Amid Growing Uncertainty at Barcelona
As Europe’s top clubs make bold moves ahead of the new season, one name has sparked increasing discussion within Paris Saint-Germain: a young midfielder who has caught the attention of both the club’s management and coaching staff. His emergence as a target is hardly unexpected, particularly for current PSG boss Luis Enrique, who views him as instrumental to strengthening the squad—with encouragement from a notable former Barcelona star.
Luis Enrique’s relationship with the player dates back to their time together with the Spanish national team, where he consistently relied on the midfielder in key international tournaments. That player is none other than Gavi, Barcelona’s dynamic young talent, whom Enrique considers a cornerstone of Spain’s future midfield.
Adding to the momentum, Gavi’s former teammate Ousmane Dembélé is reportedly pushing PSG’s board to finalize the move. Dembélé, now at PSG, is said to be lobbying internally, praising Gavi’s qualities and urging the club to act.
Gavi’s situation at Barcelona has become more uncertain since the arrival of Hansi Flick as head coach. Under Flick, the young midfielder’s role appears to be less prominent, leading to speculation about his long-term future at Camp Nou.
From PSG’s perspective, Gavi represents a perfect fit for their future-focused project. His energy, talent, and experience—despite his age—align well with the club’s ambitions. With both Enrique and Dembélé applying pressure, a potential move to Paris is gaining traction.
Barcelona, meanwhile, still values Gavi highly and sees him as integral to the team’s identity. However, financial limitations and evolving tactical needs may force the club to reconsider their position. If PSG tables a strong offer, Barça could be tempted to negotiate, even though Gavi himself reportedly prefers to remain at the club.
As the transfer window heats up, Gavi’s future is emerging as one of the most closely watched storylines—one that could significantly alter the European football landscape.
