Elche are studying a possible appeal over what they feel was an 'improper' selection of midfielder Gavi from FC Barcelona, Spanish media has reported, ...
MARCA also reports that Elche's argument would not be valid, as Gavi was originally registered with the number '30' at the start of the season and has returned to it as part of court-imposed precautionary measures making his selections valid moving forward. According to the report, Elche are studying how to get a possible appeal off the ground against Barca for what they feel was an 'improper' selection of Gavi starting on the left hand side of midfield in Xavi Hernandez's first XI. Though Gavi has been stripped of Xavi's iconic '6' jersey he was awarded at the turn of 2023, and given his old number '30', it doesn't look likely that Barca will face similar treatment as to the points earned this weekend. The Catalan outlet reported that Barca "are very calm" about any potential appeal coming to nothing because they received approval from both the league and federation on Friday regarding the matter of selecting Gavi.

Given the opponent and his team’s commanding league lead, Xavi allowed himself to experiment with his lineup. Sancet leads the team with eight goals this season. Lewandowski's second goal came after Gavi won possession and played the striker clear. Barcelona will try to beat Madrid again on Wednesday in the second leg of their Copa del Rey semifinal match.
“Ansu needed that goal,” said Xavi after the match. “Forwards change their faces when they score, you can tell. He was very tired at the end, because he worked ...
Lewandowski should have added a second before half-time but did get on the scoresheet again on 65 minutes. It is still early but he is a player I like.” The goal is the result of his hard work and individual talent.” He was very tired at the end, because he worked very hard for the team in defence. The smile on his face as the ball hit the net said it all. The celebrations with Alejandro Balde and Gavi also seemed very heartfelt. Did any of that affect Barca’s little tyro?

However, his creativity was where he fell behind and this is an area Xavi will look to groom him for in the coming months. He was accompanied in the middle of the park by Gavi and Sergi Roberto. On Saturday, the Spanish tactician unveiled his latest weapon and put it to a field test. The winger recorded three key passes, two successful dribbles and created one big chance in addition to his goal. He was the one to break the deadlock against La Liga’s relegation-threatened opposition last night. Lewandowski looked leggy and indecisive in front of the goal and barely created any threat in the final third.
