Barcelona boss Flick provides Gavi injury update | OneFootball

Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has provided an update on the wellbeing of midfield starlet Gavi.

Youngster Gavi for his part of course set alarm bells sounding across Catalunya’s capital late last month.

This came after word was forthcoming that the 21-year-old had picked up an injury problem in the same knee in which he previously tore the ACL.

Ensuing reports have varied widely when it comes to the extent of the issue, as well as how long Gavi is likely to be sidelined.

Speaking to the media on Saturday, it therefore came as little surprise when the subject of his engine room star’s recovery was put to Hansi Flick.

This comes amid Barcelona’s ongoing preparations for a La Liga meeting with Getafe tomorrow evening.

And Flick went on to admit that, as things stand, Gavi going under the knife has still not been ruled out:

“Let’s hope to have him back soon. We will make a decision on surgery at the beginning of the week.”
