Barcelona midfielder Gavi was named the 2022 Kopa Trophy winner during the Ballon d'Or Gala which was held in Paris on Monday.

The Barcelona prodigy was voted ahead of other talented players, such as Real Madrid's Eduardo Camavigna, for the finest U21 player's prize.

The Spain international has stolen the limelight since he debuted with Barcelona last season. He is picking up the baton from teammate Pedri, who won the same accolade last season and became the first Spaniard to do so.

The 18-year-old midfielder has become a key player for both Xavi Hernandez and Luis Enrique in the Spanish national team. He has already played 60 games for Barcelona and another 12 for La Roja, where he has made history.
