Gavi Páez Rejoins Barcelona Training After 10-Month Absence

Barcelona midfielder Gavi Páez has returned to training after a 10-month recovery period following surgery to repair a torn ACL. The 20-year-old sustained the injury last November during a European Championship qualifier, and his return is expected to significantly bolster Barcelona's performance.

Barcelona midfielder Gavi Páez trained with his teammates for the first time in 10 months after undergoing surgery to repair a torn ACL, the club announced on Thursday.

The 20-year-old Gavi suffered a severe injury to his right leg last November during a European Championship qualifier. At that time, he was considered one of Spain's key players after his performance in the 2022 World Cup.

Although Spain clinched the Euro 2024 title without him, Gavi's return is anticipated to be a major boost for Barcelona. The club has yet to specify when Gavi will be medically cleared to resume competitive play.
