Hansi Flick Sets a Date for Gavi’s Return to the Pitch With Barcelona and Travels for the Match Against Athletic Bilbao
The Barcelona coach spoke about Gavi's return to the football field after his injury
Is Gavi coming back?
Hansi Flick has already discussed Gavi’s return to the pitch following a knee injury that sidelined him for several months, depriving Barcelona of a key and iconic player in recent years. The 21-year-old midfielder tore the medial meniscus in his right knee last September, requiring arthroscopic surgery that sidelined him. Now he dreams of stepping on the grass again sooner rather than later
Travel to San Mamés
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick confirmed that the Spanish player will travel with the team for the match against Athletic Club at San Mamés. "He will be traveling with us and training with us, but he is not yet ready to play." "Maybe after the next break. We'll see," Flick added
Training and the next stop
The Azulgrana midfielder appeared in training, and although the coaching staff and the club prefer a gradual recovery to prevent a relapse into a more serious injury, the player has been active. With the upcoming trip to San Mamés, it is very likely that his return to the team will be sooner than expected. Although he won't be able to play, as Hansi Flick stated, he will travel and support his teammates in this new challenge for the Catalan club. The trip will also include a stop in England to face Newcastle in the Champions League round of 16 as the visiting team.
