Barcelona midfielder Pablo Gavi continues to make positive strides in his recovery journey from injury, having posted a video on his Instagram account showing him training with the ball for the first time in a long while, expressing his great happiness at being able to touch the ball again after a long absence.

Gavi underwent surgery last September to treat an injury to the inner cartilage of his knee, with an estimated recovery period of four to five months. He is now entering the final stage of his rehabilitation program after showing significant improvement.

A report in Mundo Deportivo indicated that the next step in the recovery process will be returning to team training before receiving medical clearance to participate in matches under coach Hansi Flick, without specifying an official return date yet.

It is noted that Gavi participated in only two matches this season at the start of La Liga before suffering an injury that sidelined him for a long period, making his anticipated return a strong boost for Barcelona in the upcoming phase.
