Five goals for Spanish national team for Gavi
The 19-year-old Gavi has already scored 5 goals for Spain.

In Spain, they have a diamond in the making in the 19-year-old Gavi. He is one of the biggest talents in the football world and already made his debut for Spain in 2021. At the age of 19 years and 64 days, he has now played in 25 matches, making him the youngest in Spain's history to achieve this milestone. He has already assumed a key role in the national team, where, alongside Manchester City's Rodri, he serves as one of the conductors on the team. Rodri takes care of the defensive and build-up play, while Gavi, with creative passes and runs into the box, contributes to the offensive side.

Gavi record for Spain: 
◉ 25 Games
◉ 1665 Minutes played
◉ 5 Goals
◉ 0 Assists 

Gavi was also part of the World Cup squad for Spain, where he managed to score a goal. He has stated that it's something he will remember for the rest of his life.
Scoring 5 goals might not sound like a lot, but when it's achieved by a 19-year-old player on one of Europe's top national teams, it certainly reflects significant talent. To put things in perspective, let's look at how many goals previous Spanish talents have scored at the age of 19.

Spanish players number of goals at the age of 19: 
◉ Gavi (5 goals)
◉ Raul (1 goal) 
◉ Fernando Torres (0)
◉ Xavi (0)
◉ David Villa (0) 

The future looks very bright for the Barcelona player, and there is no doubt that he has the potential to become one of the best players in Spanish football history. He and his teammate Pedri are often compared to Xavi and Iniesta, and although it's early to make such judgments, these two top talents have the right qualities to become legends in the history of Barcelona and Spanish football.
