During the election carried out by the Italian newspaper “Tuttosport”, the flagship of the Barcelona was voted ‘Golden Boy’, a category that rewards the best player under 21 in the world. It should be mentioned that this is the athlete’s second victory this week.

Now the Barcelona player has been voted ‘Golden Boy’ by the Italian publication and has increased the number of career awards. It should be noted that the official award ceremony will take place on November 7.

Due to the trophy received at the Ballon d’Or, Gavi became the subject of the coach of Bayern MunichJulien Nagelsmann, who said he thought the awarding of the ‘Kopa’ award to Spanish midfielder Gavi was unfair. The prize is awarded to the best young player of the season and, according to the coach, two other young German promises deserved more than the winner.

I am biased but I also have my own opinion. Gavi played 34 games last year for such a big club. That’s one of the reasons he won, but I still see Musiala and Bellingham a bit ahead.“Assured the German.Although both are also young, they already have more time among the professionals of their clubs and greater importance in the teams.“.
