"Always with you, brother ❤️🤜🏻🤛🏻" Gavi wrote on Instagram after Portugal v France, tagging Joao Felix.
The former Barca loanee was the only one to miss a penalty kick in the shoot-out against France as Portugal got eliminated from the Euros. The ball hit the post after Joao's shot.
Joao Felix is said to be close to re-joining Benfica this summer. He is now less likely to come back to Blaugrana despite his reported desire to stay.
The 24-year-old scored 10 goals and six assists in 44 appearances for Barcelona.
