FC Barcelona is getting closer to recovering one of the most important players in the squad. Gavi could return to action this weekend if the medical forecasts inside the club are confirmed.
According to Fernando Polo in Mundo Deportivo, there is growing confidence within the club that doctor Ricard Pruna will be able to give the midfielder medical clearance in the coming days.
Sevilla could be the stage for his return
Inside the club, the match against Sevilla FC is being considered the ideal moment for the midfielder’s comeback.
Gavi has already returned to training normally with the rest of the squad and the physical sensations are positive. Even so, the coaching staff is maintaining a cautious approach after the player’s long recovery process.
For that reason, the plan is not to rush his return.
Flick will have the final decision
Even if medical clearance arrives this weekend, the final call will depend on the coach. Hansi Flick will decide whether the player is included in the squad and whether he is ready to play minutes.
The German manager wants to manage the comeback carefully to avoid any risk of a relapse.
A key boost for the final stretch of the season
Gavi’s return would be a huge boost for Barcelona at a decisive stage of the season.
The midfielder brings intensity, pressing and competitive character — qualities that the team has missed at several moments during the campaign.
If everything progresses as expected, the match against Sevilla could mark the return of one of the most beloved players among Barça supporters.
