Luis de la Fuente has already leapt to Gavi’s defence, making it clear there was no need for the midfielder to apologize as “this is football, it’s training.”
Indeed the Spain boss even explained “I want this Gavi” in response to some of the criticism and Rodri has now shared his thoughts.
“We know Gavi is impetuous, but it stays on the field and that’s it. He has no filter, he doesn’t care,” he told El Larguero.
“We really like his personality, although we do try to tell him that training sessions are less intense than matches. I didn’t know they were recording, but I sh*t myself completely!”
The Spain team are currently focused on an opening World Cup group game against Cape Verde on Monday night in Atlanta.
