"Recovering from the second setback was far more difficult than the first time around, but he fought through the adversity to ensure he sees the light at the end of the tunnel."
"Gavi's return adds competition to the midfield, which is currently dominated by Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Dani Olmo, Fermin Lopez, Marc Casado and Marc Bernal."
"It is not completely ruled out that in the coming two months, Gavi could earn a place on the Spanish NT squad for the FIFA World Cup."
"No risks will be taken with the player and that Hansi Flick will exert care and patience over his return, as his long-term fitness is of concern to Barcelona."
Gavi was sidelined for 203 days due to knee surgery. His recovery was challenging, but he returned to play against Sevilla, receiving the captain's armband. His comeback is significant for Hansi Flick, providing rotational depth in midfield. Gavi's presence increases competition among players like Pedri and Frenkie de Jong. While his immediate impact may be limited, he is determined to earn playing time. There is a possibility of Gavi being considered for the Spanish national team for the FIFA World Cup, but his long-term fitness remains a priority for Barcelona.
