Xavi Espart Poised for Second La Liga Start with Barcelona
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is reportedly preparing to give a promising young defender a starting role this weekend.
Xavi Espart, an emerging talent in Barcelona's defensive lineup, has quickly become a notable contributor in recent weeks. With Jules Koundé and Eric García sidelined due to injuries, the gifted 18-year-old was first given an opportunity to shine off the bench at right-back during a Champions League clash against Newcastle United.
This appearance was swiftly followed by his inaugural start in Blaugrana colors last weekend, contributing to a comfortable La Liga victory over Sevilla.
Latest reports indicate that Espart's performances have clearly made a strong impression on Hansi Flick and his coaching staff. All signs suggest that Espart is a strong candidate to start on the right flank this coming Sunday at the Spotify Camp Nou, as Barcelona faces Rayo Vallecano.
