Barcelona Youngster Xavi Espart Set for Second La Liga Start vs Rayo Vallecano
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is reportedly poised to give young defender Xavi Espart his second La Liga start of the season this weekend. The promising 18-year-old is a strong candidate to feature at right-back when Barcelona faces Rayo Vallecano at the Spotify Camp Nou.
Espart has quickly become a notable contributor for the Catalan giants in recent weeks. His rise comes amidst ongoing injury issues affecting key defenders like Jules Koundé and Eric García. The talented youngster first showcased his potential off the bench at right-back during a Champions League clash against Newcastle United.
Building on that opportunity, Espart subsequently made his full debut for the Blaugrana, starting in a comfortable La Liga victory over Sevilla last weekend. His impressive performance in that match evidently caught the eye of Hansi Flick and his staff, potentially leading to another starting berth.
