Spain international Gavi beat competition from some of Europe’s most promising youngsters to land the award, including England and Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham, Real Madrid’s Eduardo Camavinga and Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala.
Gavi said in a video message: “I want to thank Tuttosport, I want to thank my family, who are there in the good and bad times. I want to thank Barca, my teammates as without them this wouldn’t be possible. It’s an honor for me to get this award that any young player desires.” (QNA)
