He'll aim to recover in time to face Alaves on Dec. 22 in the team's final game of the campaign before the end-of-year break.

The Valencia captain had been regaining form, starting the last four LaLiga games. He has been influential on set pieces, delivering 19 crosses in five appearances this season. If Gaya misses time, it would be a significant blow for Valencia, particularly given their challenging start to the season. If sidelined, Jesus Vazquez is expected to replace him on the left flank.

Impact Gaya looks to be set to make his season debut soon, as he is now set for a return after being cleared of his quadriceps injury. He will return to Valencia from Finland in the coming days, immediately starting group training once he is back in Spain. This leaves him as an option for Monday's match against Las Palams, possibly seeing the start in his return but more likely working his way in off the bench.

Impact Gaya is finally set to return to play, as he has overcome a quadriceps issue that has kept him out for an extended period. He is a regular starter, so this is a huge addition to the squad for the end of the season as they gain back their captain. That being said, he will hope to start immediately, but after such a long time out, they may choose to start him off the bench, earning minutes late into the match before a full return.

MAY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

In doubt for Sunday Gaya (quadriceps) has continued to train with the group but is still in heavy doubt for Sunday's match against Rayo Vallecano, per David Torres of El Desmarque.

Impact Gaya is nearing a return but will likely need another week to recover before taking the field, as he was included in team training over the week. He will probably face a late fitness test ahead of the match to decide his fitness, although most signs point to him being left on the sidelines for yet another week. That being said, even if he is available, only expect him to get time off the bench, with his absence from the clean sheet being something that shouldn't surprise.

MAY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back to team training Gaya (quadriceps) is back to team training with the team ahead of Sunday's match against Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Gaya will look to make his return to the pitch as he begun to train with the group Thursday. He had missed the last month with a quad injury, therefore it may take him more than a training session to build back fitness, keeping him a questionable status for Sunday. With Jesus Vazquez out with a groin injury, then Dimitri Foulquier could get the call to start at left back if Gaya is still not fit to play.

MAY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Gaya appears to be closing in on a return to play after missing the last month due to quadriceps issues, as he was spotted getting work in with a ball while training individually. However, with the defender only training individually, he will most likely not be an option to face Alaves with only two days to get into team training. He will now hope to get into team training over the next week, looking to be an option to face Rayo Vallecano on Sunday.

Impact The star left-back won't be available to face Barcelona, and his absence will be huge against one of the most prolific attacks in LaLiga. This means Jesus Vazquez will probably remain in the starting lineup Monday, and Gaya's next chance to feature will come against Alaves on Sunday.

APRIL 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't face Betis on Saturday Gaya (quadriceps) hasn't participated in training throughout the week, and the coaching staff has ruled him out for Saturday's game against Betis, El Desmarque reports.

Impact The veteran left-back continues to deal with a nagging quadriceps problem, and while there's no clear timetable for his return, his next chance to play will come against Barcelona on April 27. This also means Dimitri Foulquier is likely to continue as the starter on the left side of the defense Saturday.

APRIL 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out yet again Gaya (quadriceps) is out for Thursday's match against Granada.
