Spain boss Luis Enrique has reserved massive praise for Barcelona youngster Gavi after the midfielder’s latest outing for Spain.

The 17-year-old only recently burst onto the spotlight this past season, but has now grown into being an important player for club and country.

Enrique was full of praise for the Barcelona youngster after his starring role in the UEFA Nations League tie against Czech Republic, which Spain won 2-0.

“It’s an erupting volcano. It is very difficult not to fall in love with Gavi,” the head coach told TVE. “Any fan wants to see him play.”

When asked if he has had to advise Gavi on any parts of his game, Enrique added: “No, you know, he picks up everything very quickly.”

The Barca youngster scored two and provided six assists in 34 La Liga outings last term.
