Gavi gets carried away and borders on the ridiculous in Japan, the locker room reacts: 'We are...'

The shameful statements with which Gavi has given an unexpected surprise during Barcelona's preseason

Looking ahead to the upcoming season, several clubs have already started their respective preseasons to prepare. One of them is Barcelona, with its tour of Asia prompting some superb statements from Gavi. "We're not worried at all, we're going to give 100% this season so what happened last year doesn't happen again."

These words clearly show the excess confidence the Barça footballer has for the upcoming season. Last season, Barcelona reached the Champions League semifinals where, once again, it was humiliated. Inter Milan prevailed with an aggregate score of 7 goals to 6 to advance to the grand final.

This has been conveniently ignored by Gavi, who trusts he'll have a better season. However, as we know at Defensa Central, Gavi's role within Barcelona is a mystery. His statements are nothing more than a poor attempt to instill a nonexistent fear.

The season back to reality

During last season, Barcelona believed it was on par with the best teams in the world. An illusion that Inter took care of destroying after really showing what a good team is. Barça, during that Champions League match, returned to a reality that awaits it next season.

Gavi, 20 years old, has always been a player who attacks and criticizes Real Madrid. Both on and off the field, the Spaniard can't stop thinking about the Merengue team. His words were a clear sign, above all, of the fear he has of Real Madrid.

Dean Huijsen, Trent, Carreras, and Mastantuono are the signings the team has made. Players with unmatched talent who have helped Real Madrid make a great leap in its level. Despite the arrogance in his words, Gavi and Barcelona's illusion won't last long.

An uncertain future

Besides all this, Gavi's words are surprising for a player with a future full of doubts. After his serious injury, Gavi began to show his true level. Far below Barcelona's low expectations, Gavi could be exposed by his words.
