LA REACCIÓN DE GAVI AL SER CONVOCADO CON ESPAÑA 😍🇪🇸 📹 Lamine Yamal #DAZNMundial

Analysis of Spain's World Cup squad: No Real Madrid players for first time, Lamine Yamal set for competition debut. @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/73066…

Spain’s World Cup squad. Lamine Yamal leads the pack. Eric Garcia and Marc Pubill deservedly included, taking the places of Le Normand and Huijsen. Gavi gets the call too. Victor Muñoz will be the X factor from the bench. No Madrid player in the squad, first time in a WC.

Excl. interview with Patri Guijarro. She brings balance to Barcelona. She has featured in all seven of Barcelona’s Champions League finals, playing in three different positions and was named MVP of the 2023 final whilst playing out of position. nytimes.com/athletic/72968…

Thiago Alcantara set to leave Barça’s backroom staff by the end of the season, following reports from @mundodeportivo, @JijantesFC.

Simplement el millor. Gràcies per aquests anys.

Excl. interview with Eric Garcia. A football 'geek' who has had the season of his life at Barça. He can watch over four games a day, started his coaching badges at 16 and at 25 has no doubts he'll be a manager one day. @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/72907…

@Barca_Buzz Hello, If you use our content, I am going to ask you to credit it and include a link. This has an impact on our work and capacity to provide this kind of reporting.

🎙️ Eric Garcia on Lamine Yamal 🗣️ "If Lamine has a one-on-one with the defender, I will hardly go up because I know he will dribble past him. But when he is double or even triple marked, then I need to go there to add a new layer to the attack" “Lamine’s decision-making is off the charts. He has the intelligence to see what’s best in every game, so all I can do is adapt and try to help him shine. In training, he does things sometimes you really can’t believe.”

Eric Garcia has been brilliant for Barcelona. A football obsessive who “loves tactics”, his versatility and intelligence made him a fundamental part of their La Liga title defence. He spoke with @polballus on: 🧠 Impressing Pep Guardiola with tactical knowledge at 18 🤝 His evolving chemistry with Lamine Yamal 🇪🇸 World Cup hopes with Spain this summer 🇩🇪 How 'father figure' Hansi Flick saved him from a Camp Nou exit 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/72907…

Eric Garcia mentions Igor Thiago, Junior Kroupi and Igor Jesus as three players who have impressed him this season. He also reveals the turning point in Barça's season, and the tactical tweak that should take them into the next level. @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/72907…

@Laziboy_ Read the intro and you'll be reminded of that story

Didn’t he help pep vs Watford iirc that one time?

I’ll be doing an AMA tomorrow on Reddit! From 5pm BST, feel free to come by and drop your question. @TheAthleticFC reddit.com/r/Barca/commen…

@XDcomps @jimmycooked_ @BarcaTimes @TheAthletic I can’t help you thinking I have a particular interest to prove anything on any side. But I can help into telling you this document mentioned above is from 2022, and spreading this is a definitive decision is misleading, to put it mildly.

🚨| 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: The Spanish Tax Agency sees NO sporting corruption by Barcelona in the Negreira case. The agency concludes that there were no payments made to referees, nor any evidence that payments to Negreira influenced the club’s results. 🗣️ “In the present procedure, no service provided to the payer has been proven — such as obtaining confidential information about refereeing criteria, referee appointments, or anything similar — nor that he could have influenced results in any way. This has not been proven during the inspection procedure. No payments to any referee have been found, and all bank account movements were reviewed. No evidence has been found suggesting any possibility of influencing results.” [@MiguelGalanCNFE] #fcblive ⚖️

▪️Fermín López very likely to miss the World Cup after suffering a foot fracture last night. He will undergo surgery shortly. Spain manager Luis De la Fuente to announce the final list next Monday. @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/72881…

Not great news for Spain players from Barça lately. ▪️Lamine Yamal is set to miss their World Cup opener against Cape Verde (15 June). Serious doubt for their second game vs Saudi Arabia. @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/72818…

Robert Lewandowski in tears as he gets subbed off, for one last time, at the Camp Nou. Standing ovation in the stadium. One of those moments.
