Barcelona midfielder Gavi opened up on the incredible season the Catalan side have been enjoying under the guidance of German head coach Hansi Flick as the Blaugrana remain in hot pursuit of a coveted quadruple season.
Barcelona sit atop the La Liga rankings and will face Borussia Dortmund in the quarterfinal of the UEFA Champions League quarter finals. They also have the chance to round the season out with a couple of Cup titles.
Barcelona are yet unbeaten in the calendar year 2025, but Gavi opined that his side isn’t invincible. The young midfielder opined that the unit need to stay humble and keep their feet firmly on the ground for the remainder of the season.
“We’re having a spectacular season but we don’t feel invincible, it’s football, you can’t always win,” Gavi began.
“We have to play with humility in every game and remember where we came from, that’s the important thing, to keep our feet on the floor and go game by game,” the La Masia product added.
“There are still a lot of games to go and we want to win as many titles as possible (but) we have to go game by game,” the 20-year-old stated.
Gavi, a hard-tackling midfielder, also hit out at doubters who question his abilities on the ball brushing off claims of not being good enough on the ball.
“It’s true that people say that I don’t know how to play football, but they don’t have a clue,” said Gavi.
“That’s the truth, I can understand it, it’s football, everyone can think what they want and that’s fine,” he added.
The Spanish international made his return to the Barcelona fold following a prolonged time on the sidelines following an injury and has been rotated in and out alongside Fermin Lopez and Dani Olmo, and the 20-year-old has no issues with the same.
“It’s true that I’m not having such an important role as in other seasons, but that’s normal after I came back from a long injury,” added Gavi.
“I am very happy with the recovery I’ve had, and if you told me I would have this season when I got back from injury, I would have taken that,” the midfielder said.
Head coach Flick also touched upon the necessity to remain grounded and rallied his side to pull through the final leg of the campaign.
“I’ve always said that we’re allowed to dream, but here we need to keep two feet on the ground,” said the German.
“It’s important that we know that what we have achieved (so far) has been through a lot of hard work and a lot of preparation. We don’t want this to be the end, we’ll see if tomorrow we’ll be able to give our all like we have in these last matches,” the 60-year-old said.
“We haven’t lost a game yet this year — we want to keep it that way,” Flick added.
