Chelsea is coming back strong: million-dollar offer for a star from FC Barcelona

After spending almost a year in the infirmary of FC Barcelona due to a serious knee injury, Gavi returned to the first team in October 2024, and his role in Hansi Flick's scheme gradually increased in importance until he settled into the midfield last January. However, since the trauma suffered against Alavés, the Andalusian's influence in the starting eleven has diminished, losing weight in the team in recent weeks.

The competition in the Barcelona midfield is 'fierce'. Pedri and Frenkie de Jong have established themselves as two indisputable players for the coach, which means four players are fighting for the remaining spot in the midfield. Gavi, Dani Olmo, Marc Casadó, and Fermín López make up the rotation for the German, in a debate that the '6' seemed to have won but has reopened after the return of the Egarense following his last injury.

This situation is being seized by the top clubs on the continent, who see it as an unbeatable opportunity to acquire one of the players with the best present and greatest potential in the world of football. Luis Enrique has already shown his interest in bringing him into his ranks at Paris Saint-Germain, and now Chelsea is the latest to join the bidding.

Chelsea willing to pay a fortune for Gavi

In this regard, the portal 'TEAMtalk' has revealed that the 'blue' entity is willing to present an offer close to 60 million euros to secure the services of the Andalusian. A figure that seems low, as the 20-year-old star is valued at 80 'million' according to 'Transfermarkt' and has a release clause of one billion, making it unlikely that the Catalans will accept the Londoners' proposal.

The interest of the pensioners in Gavi dates back to the summer of 2023, when they tried to convince him to join their squad with a staggering offer that would make him one of the highest-paid players on the team. However, the player remained firm in his desire to continue defending the blue and claret jersey and turned down the interest from the English, who continue to dream of seeing the player from Los Palacios in blue, although all indications suggest that they will receive another 'slam door' from the player.

At Can Barça, on the other hand, they do not intend to negotiate for Gavi in the summer window. The Blaugrana consider the Andalusian, along with Pedri and Lamine, as flags of the culé sports project, so his future is not in doubt. Nevertheless, PSG, Chelsea, and other 'heavyweights' in Europe will make an effort for the Spanish international, who despite his long inactivity remains one of the most promising midfielders on the old continent.
