Barcelona Midfielder Gavi Faces Lengthy Absence After Knee Surgery

Barcelona midfielder, Gavi, will be out of action for four to five months following knee surgery for a meniscus injury. This adds to his previous anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

The extended absence of Gavi poses a challenge for Barcelona's manager, Hansi Flick, as the team navigates the La Liga campaign. The club is already facing midfield concerns with another player, Fermin Lopez, sidelined due to a muscle injury.

Barcelona had hoped for Gavi's return this season, but the surgery has prolonged his rehabilitation period, impacting the team's midfield options significantly.
