"Earlier today, he did a part of the group training session with the rest of the squad, taking a huge step forward in his rehabilitation. Two to three weeks to return While Gavi may have begun training with his teammates again today, his actual return to playing is still some time away. Indeed, according to journalist Javi Miguel of AS, there will be no risks taken with Gavi, and Barcelona will proceed with calmness."
"Nevertheless, Gavi's return to group training today is a big morale boost for Barcelona, especially as it comes after back-to-back confidence-sapping defeats against Atletico Madrid and Girona. Prior to his injury, the young midfielder had made only two appearances this season, totalling up to 66 minutes, in which he had registered one assist. Once he returns, Gavi will have competition for places in midfield, with the likes of Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Marc Bernal, Marc Casado, Dani Olmo, and Fermin Lopez all battling it out."
Gavi resumed group training today after being out for five months following knee surgery. He suffered the injury in late August and underwent arthroscopic surgery in September after conservative treatment failed. He gradually increased intensity on the pitch and took part in a group session as a step in rehabilitation. Barcelona will take a cautious approach, with two to three weeks of work expected before medical clearance. The return to group training provides a morale boost after recent defeats. Before the injury he made two appearances this season totalling 66 minutes and one assist. He will face competition from Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Marc Bernal and others.
