Gavi Breaks Silence on Injury Shock, Lamine Yamal, Barcelona Stars Offer Support Barcelona have reportedly devised a transfer plan in Gavi’s absence.

SEPTEMBER 25 • SI.COM

Set for five months out Gavi (knee) is expected to miss five months due to a knee injury, the club announced.

Impact Gavi underwent an arthroscopic surgery on his knee and it was decided the best course of action for a full recovery would be five months on the sideline. It's a bad outcome for the midfielder, who is struggling with yet another serious knee issue. He will hope to be back for the final few months of this season, though injuries are becoming a serious concern as he hasn't appeared in more than 30 matches since the 2022/23 campaign.

Impact Gavi has ended his conservative treatment of about three weeks for his meniscus injury and is now set to undergo an arthroscopic examination on his right knee on Tuesday. His timeline for return remains uncertain and will depend on the examination and his evolution in the coming weeks. That said, Gavi is expected to hold a rotational role at Barcelona this season, therefore his absence does not impact the starting squad but allows Marc Casado to see increased playing time in the midfield.

Avoids knee surgery Gavi has avoided knee surgery as Barcelona opted for a conservative treatment that will sideline him for several weeks, according to Sport.

Impact Gavi will undergo a conservative treatment of about three weeks for his knee discomfort and will avoid surgery to address the issue. This is good news for Barcelona since it prevents a long term absence, although with the injury of Frenkie de Jong (leg), his presence would have been useful in midfield. That said, this will leave some space for Marc Casado who is expected to see increased playing time until the injured players return.

Suffers knee discomfort Gavi is suffering from knee discomfort and is out for Sunday's clash against Rayo Vallecano, the club announced.

Impact Gavi is dealing with knee discomfort and is now ruled out for Sunday's clash against Rayo Vallecano. That said, the injury doesn't seem to be serious but his return will depend on his recovery. Gavi will have some time during the international break to work on his return and be ready for the next fixture after the break against Valencia on Sept. 14 if everything goes as planned. That said, his absence doesn't impact the starting XI since he is expected to hold a bench role again this season for the team.

AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't finish training Friday Gavi didn't finish Friday's training session due to a knee injury and is doubtful to play against Rayo Vallecano on Sunday, Sergi de Juan of Diario AS reports.

Impact Gavi isn't expected to be dealing with a serious injury, but he's a heavy doubt to feature Sunday due to the proximity of the match. The midfielder has played off the bench in his two league outings this season, however, so his potential absence shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy appeal.

Sets up goal off bench Gavi assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Mallorca.

Impact Gavi delivered the assist for Yamal's stoppage-time goal with a clever layoff after being subbed in in the 68th minute. He completed 19 passes and won two duels in 22 minutes. Returning from a injury hit season, his energy was crucial. His substitution, alongside Marcus Rashford and Jofre Torrents, reinforced Barcelona's midfield control against a depleted Mallorca, ensuring a clean sheet with only 4 shots conceded, a testament to their tactical dominance post-red cards

1,000 minutes in rotational role Gavi started in 14 of his 26 appearances while registering one goal on 11 shots and one assist on 14 chances created in La Liga.

Impact Gavi took until around the start of October to see the field after returning from a torn ACL, seeing a rotational role once he was available. That said, he is struggling to work into the starting role he held in the 2022/23 campaign, fighting for minutes in a midfield that continues to produce solid talent that contends for minutes. He does appear to still have a role in Hansi Flick's system and is valuable to the team when he sees the time. The main question will just be if he can convert that into starting time again, as his rotational role majorly hinders his production.

Impact Gavi was called up for the second leg Tuesday, and as expected he makes it back on the bench. He picked up the injury at the weekend when he came off against Valladolid, but the hope will be that it wasn't a serious issue.
