Barcelona’s young star, Gavi, is set to join the Spain squad in Berlin ahead of their Euro 2024 final against England. Spain, under the guidance of coach Luis de la Fuente, is preparing for their first European final since their triumph in Euro 2012.
Gavi, who has been sidelined due to a cruciate ligament tear suffered during international duty last November, did not initially make the tournament squad.
However, reports from Mundo Deportivo confirm that de la Fuente has extended an invitation to the 19-year-old midfielder to join the team. Gavi will be flying out on an RFEF charter flight tomorrow morning.
Spain’s journey to the final included a notable semi-final victory over France, with de la Fuente expected to make minimal changes to his starting lineup. The addition of Gavi, even as a non-playing squad member, is seen as a morale booster for La Roja.
Barcelona has been cautious regarding Gavi’s return to club action, with a tentative return set for September. His presence in Berlin signifies a significant step in his recovery and highlights the support within the Spanish camp as they aim for another European Championship title.
The final against England, set for Sunday, will be a crucial test for Spain as they seek to reclaim their dominance in European football.
