[Partially trains with teamGavi (knee) has returned to parts of team training, according to his club.\
\
ImpactGavi continues to progress in his rehabilitation program, with the midfielder having trained with the group in sections Thursday. This is great news, although he is likely to still need a couple more weeks to a month before a full return. That said, expect him to be back in action near the start of October, which will be a huge boost to the club with a very injured midfielder room.\
\
1 DAY AGO•ROTOWIRE](javascript:void(0)) [Continues recovery processGavi (knee) is continuing his individual training on the grass with ball work.\
\
ImpactGavi has upped his training with more ball work and running on the grass. The midfielder is on the right pace to make his season debut in the next few weeks and he needs to train fully with the team first before being an option for Barcelona. His timetable to return is expected to be September, barring any setbacks.\

ImpactGavi has upped his training with more ball work and running on the grass. The midfielder is on the right pace to make his season debut in the next few weeks and he needs to train fully with the team first before being an option for Barcelona. His timetable to return is expected to be September, barring any setbacks.\
\
AUGUST 15•ROTOWIRE](javascript:void(0)) [Training on grassGavi was viewed back on the training pitch running on grass.\
\
ImpactGavi is continuing to ramp up his fitness, as he was shown running on grass for the first time since his ACL surgery. This is great news for the young midfielder, although he is still some time away from a return. That being said, he will likely still miss the first couple of matches of the season, probably being ready for a return around the start of Septemeber.\
\
JUNE 12•ROTOWIRE](javascript:void(0)) [Ends season on injury listGavi appeared in 12 games (10 starts), notching one goal on nine shots and one assist on 11 chances created.\
\
ImpactGavi's season ended in the worst way possible, as he has not played since November after receiving ACL surgery. That said, there is little to go off for the player's performance this year due to his injury, but he should still be considered one of the rising talents in the football world. That said, he should come back healthy for the start of the next campaign, likely still holding a decent spot moving into the season. However, that will come down to whether he will remain with the team, as many clubs want his presence on their team despite being on contract until 2026 with Barcelona.\
\
MAY 31•ROTOWIRE](javascript:void(0)) [Surprise return to trainingGavi (knee) was pictured on the training pitch following Saturday's 3-1 win against Alaves.\
\
ImpactGavi's return to the training pitch this soon was utterly unexpected, as just over two months ago, he was required to receive surgery due to a torn ACL. He was not shown running or working with the ball but was in full training attire, pushing the narrative that he was involved. The midfielder still shouldn't be expected to touch the field in a game for a while, as a return from a torn ACL after only two to three months of recovery is unheard of. However, this new development does bring hope that he could be back before the end of the season, but they still may be a long shot after such a serious injury.\

\
NOVEMBER 20, 2023•ASSOCIATED PRESS](/articles/soccer/barcelona-midfielder-gavi-to-undergo-surgery-for-knee-injury-sustained-with-spains-national-team) [Set for knee surgeryGavi completely tore his ACL with Spain over the break and will undergo surgery in the coming days, confirmed the club.\
\
ImpactIt's tough news for Gavi, who at 19 years old will miss the rest of the season and be in a race for fitness ahead of the 2024/25 campaign. It's never good to lose pitch time early in your career, though Pedri missed time a couple years ago with an injury of his own. Gavi had been a regular in the squad to open the season, starting all but three league matches and only being dropped in UCL because of a red card. Of course, Barca have plenty of options to take up his minutes, especially Pedri who is recently back from injury.\

\
ImpactGavi will be serving another suspension, this time in league play, as he already has reached five yellow cards on the season. The midfielder had just finished serving his suspension in the UCL after receiving a straight red card against Porto. He will next be available for Barcelona in the La Liga on Nov. 25 in a match against Rayo. Expect Pedri to return to the starting XI after his injury with Gavi out.\

\
ImpactGavi was on the sideline for the first time in 2023/24 and it was due to a suspension following his red card against Porto. The midfielder is a nearly guaranteed start in all competitions when fit and should be straight back in the starting XI for Saturday's El Clasico.\

ImpactGavi netted the first Champions League goal of his career, as he fired a shot from the center of the box to the top left corner of the goal, after receiving the assist from Robert Lewandowski. Gavi was then subbed out minutes later and was allowed to enjoy the rest of the match from the sidelines.
