Barcelona midfielder Pablo Martin Paez Gavira Gavi has revealed he is happy to play in any position under German coach Hansi Flick, Diario Sport reported on Tuesday.

‘I can play in different positions in midfield, it’s good, the coach sees me more as a playmaker, but I can also play as a central midfielder or as a number six. The more versatile I can be, the better. I can play anywhere in midfield,’ Gabi said.

The 20-year-old midfielder also explained how he has developed as a player under Flick, saying: ‘Flick lets me play in different positions and this will improve my game. It will be good for the future. The more complete I play, the better it is. That’s what Flick is doing with me. ‘

‘Hansi helped me with a lot of football ideas and also with my human side.’

‘Since I was a kid I’ve always been a starter and it was something I had to understand in my head that I couldn’t always be a starter. Flick is a great guy and we are very happy to have him as our coach.’

Gabi also spoke about his role in the team and his reduced playing time recently: ‘It’s true that I don’t play as important a role, but it’s normal because I’ve just come back from a long injury. I’m very happy with the recovery I’ve had.’

Asked if he still remembers Barcelona’s treble-winning campaign in 2009, Gavi replied: ‘I was very young, I don’t remember very well. At La Masia, you always dream of a treble or six titles, which is the maximum possible. ‘

‘There are a lot of players who have big dreams and that’s okay, but I think we have to win the next game.’
