20-year-old ace prodigy marks another significant step for his Barca return

Since the 2024/25 season started, one of the major wishes of Barca fans has been to witness passionate prodigy star Gavi and Hansi Flick's union at the club. Given the distinctive abilities both bring to the side, with Gavi being arguably the biggest Barca fan, ready to put his all for the club, and Flick's calm and composed nature, aligned with German discipline, the duo possesses enough potential to take down opponents with ease.

Thus, although the Blaugrana club has endured the injuries of many superstars, Dani Olmo, Ter Stegen, and Ronald Araujo, no one is being as awaited for as Gavi. Since his debut in the 21/22 campaign, the prodigy star has gone on to become one of the key mainstays for the club, known for injecting an intensity boost with his presence, apart from being brilliant in the pivot role.

While reports from the last few days have been hinting at the player's return soon, with him having made a significant recovery, recent reports on him sound much more positive. As per reports from Barca insider Santi Ovalle, Gavi has received the medical green light to play again. Given the player's Barca dedication, he is ready to return to the pitch but is awaiting the official announcement.

Moreover, the report suggests that Barca boss Flick, considering Gavi crucial in his double-pivot setup, has prepared a special management plan for the midfielder's return. Although many details about it aren't known yet, it could be something similar to the one they have prepared to get back superstar Dani Olmo to his level best.

As per the current scenario, Gavi's availability for the Sevilla fixture seems questionable; however, his making a few crucial minutes in the end isn't ruled out. As Mundo Deportivo's earlier reports indicated, Barca's planning to play another intra-squad friendly in the upcoming days to give Gavi, Olmo, Fermín, and Szczesny some match rhythm could be an indication of the player's Sevilla return.

However, whatever it may be, Gavi's medical green light approval has been a major step in his return, indicating an appearance coming soon. Barca fans who had been waiting to see him back in the pivot position would hope that the 20-year-old ace returns soon, playing a crucial role in the club's long season ahead.
