The cancellation of Gavi’s first-team status at Barca last month has caused headaches for the Catalan club.
Club officials now have to scramble to ensure he is re-registered this summer.
Chelsea with Catalan sauce?
If Gavi is not registered as a first-team player by the end of June, he will be allowed to leave Barcelona on a free contract, and the club will not receive a dime for the teenager .
European clubs have therefore been alerted to the situation, and MD report that Chelsea are one of the teams looking into the possibility of signing Gavi if he becomes a free agent.
If Gavi becomes available, Chelsea could have more pulling power than other sides if he appoints Luis Enrique as manager. Lucho has traveled to London for talks and, if he takes charge of the team, he could reunite with Gavi, who he led as Spain manager.
Despite the speculations, FC Barcelona are very confident in keeping Gavi, even if his contract with the first team cannot be registered before the deadline.
