Former Atlético Madrid captain Gabi (42) criticized Vinícius Junior for his behavior, particularly during his remarkable outing during the Clásico: “It’s unacceptable and self-centered to apologize and then ignore the coach. » According to him, the role of leader falls above all to the coach and no one should feel above the team.
The former Colchonero also mentioned the Lamine Yamal case, saying that “off the field, he progresses faster than on the field”according to A.S.. For Gabi, the young Barça prodigy must be well supervised and supported by those around him in order not to slow down his development, despite the pressure linked to his contract and his superstar status in Spanish football. Clearly, his words show that today, even at 18 years old for Yamal and 25 years old for Vinícius, certain stars can take over the coach, which is not always a good thing for the team.
