The 17-year-old is the surprise inclusion

Barcelona midfielder Gavi has been handed a first call-up to the Spain national team after impressing for the Catalan giants in the early weeks of the season.

Luis Enrique has made the surprise decision to call up the 17-year-old to his squad for the Nations League semi-final against Italy on Wednesday, October 6 in Milan.

The other semi-final sees Belgium take on France in Turin with the winners set to meet in the final at the San Siro on October 10.

Gavi is included along with Barca team-mates Pedri, Sergio Busquets, and Eric Garcia.

Here’s the rest of Luis Enrique’s 23-man squad for the Nations League final four.

As expected, there’s no call-up yet for Barcelona’s Ansu Fati who is slowly coming back from a lengthy lay-off due to a knee injury.

The striker enjoyed a memorable goalscoring comeback against Levante on Sunday and managed another 22 minutes of first-team action against Benfica in the Champions League.
