"Fermín López wants it. He wants his coach to have no doubts in his mind when it comes time to decide who's on the field. Not only does Fermín want to be a Barca player, he wants to be a regular starter."
"Gavi is another player who's back, and frankly, he looks better than ever. After so many injuries in recent years, he has to deal with the perception that he will never be back to his best, at least from a physical point of view."
"Players around the world should learn from Fermín's example. He's the kind of guy that's supposed to be overlooked, and for a while, he was. Once he got his foot in the door, however, he has fought tooth and nail to stay at the Camp Nou."
Barcelona is winning even without key forwards Raphinha and Lamine Yamal. Coach Hansi Flick's decisions are proving effective. Players like Fermín López and Gavi are fighting for their places, with López showing determination to secure a spot in the team. Gavi has returned from injuries looking better than ever, which may impact Frenkie de Jong's future at the club. The domestic trophy seems assured, but many players are under pressure as they vie for positions in the upcoming World Cup.
