"Teenager" Gavi: How He Made History at Barcelona Surpassing Messi's Record

Barcelona's promising player Pablo Gavira (Gavi) made his mark in the history of the Spanish club with a goal during his team's 3-2 victory over Elche in the local league on Saturday. The talented Spanish midfielder scored Barcelona's second goal magnificently in the 19th minute, marking his first goal with the senior Catalan team after being promoted at the start of the current season.

Gavi has become the third youngest player in Barcelona's history to score a goal for the first team, surpassing club legend Lionel Messi, who departed last summer for Paris Saint-Germain. Gavi scored his goal at the age of 17 years and 135 days, while Messi recorded his first goal for Barcelona at 17 years and 331 days.

In this list, Ansu Fati holds the top spot as the youngest scorer for Barcelona in history, achieving this at the age of 16 years and 304 days, while Bojan Krkic follows in second place, accomplishing the feat at 17 years and 53 days.
