Overview

• Gavi has shown significant short-term improvement in the internal meniscus of his right knee, the one repaired for an ACL in 2023.
• The player prefers non-surgical management, while club doctors and coaches are assessing progress cautiously day to day.
• Barcelona’s medical team led by Dr. Ricard Pruna, with knee specialist Dr. Monllau, will evaluate him under jumping, deceleration and bending drills.
• A summit with the club, medical staff and the player is expected early next week to confirm the treatment plan.
• Recovery timelines vary by choice, with reports citing roughly 15 days if conservative care succeeds versus at least five to six weeks after arthroscopy, and a newer report suggests a return in the coming weeks is unlikely.
