But what is happening to Gavi?

If he had not been injured on November 19 against Georgia in this Euro qualifying match, there is no doubt that Gavi would be present with the Spanish delegation in Germany. And with a major role what is more, since he was indispensable in the eyes of Luis de la Fuente, as he was also a very important member of FC Barcelona. But because of this double injury to the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee and the meniscus, the Iberian coach and Xavi had to do without him…

A blow for both clubs, since in addition to his technical qualities and his somewhat atypical profile, he is a valuable player on the defensive level thanks to his aggressiveness and his physical qualities. When will we see him back on the field? This Wednesday, the daily Brand says a little more about the situation of the player, who has not played since that sad evening in November.

His return date is still unclear.

We learn that the player is already working on the pitch at the FC Barcelona training center. Sessions focused on recovering his physical abilities, thus aiming to work on speed and explosiveness. However, he has not yet touched the leather, but we can sense that he is rather happy and optimistic. While La Liga resumes in exactly two months, it is still difficult to know if we will see him start the season under the orders of Hansi Flick. Especially since the player and the club do not want to take any risks and have no intention of forcing a return too early. A few weeks ago, the Iberian press mentioned a return planned for October or November.

The team will return to work on July 8, but the midfielder should continue to train outside the group. It must be said that once he is fully operational and 100% healed, it will be necessary to add one or two more months of rehabilitation at the pace of the competition. We may therefore have to wait until 2025 to see the best version of the Andalusian. But whatever happens, Gavi is starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. This injury that has clearly slowed his progress should soon be forgotten, to the great delight of Barcelona fans…
