Barcelona received a significant boost on Friday as Gavi joined his teammates on the training ground for the first time in a very long time.
The midfielder has been out for five months following another knee surgery last year, but he is nearing a return to first-team action. The big question now is when we will see Gavi back on the pitch for Barcelona.
As is well known, Barcelona will take things slowly given his injury history, meaning patience will be required. According to reporter Javi Miguel from AS, the club is talking about two or three more weeks before giving the all-clear.
Just having Gavi around should lift spirits. The midfielder is a popular figure in the dressing room and known for his infectious energy and hunger for the game, which may prove a boost as Barca seeks to bounce back from defeats to Atletico and Girona.
