After two weeks of conservative physical therapy, Barcelona have decided that Gavi will undergo a minor arthroscopic procedure to return to the pitch as soon as possible. The medical examination will be performed under the supervision of the club's medical staff. This comes after Fermin Lopez also suffered an injury in Barca's La Liga fixture against Getafe, which has now sidelined for a couple of weeks.

Barcelona midfielder Gavi is 'sad' as he faces another knee surgery, but Spain coach Luis de la Fuente is backing the youngster return stronger.

Barcelona opt for a cautious approach with Gavi after a knee injury flare-up, but a second operation remains a possibility if physical therapy fails.

Barcelona star Fermin Lopez has played down talk of an alleged rift with team-mate Gavi and revealed why he chose not to join Chelsea this summer.

Barcelona’s dressing room has reportedly been rocked by an extraordinary bust-up between two of its brightest young stars, with Gavi allegedly demanding that his long-time friend Fermin Lopez be sold after a furious clash that nearly turned physical. The pair’s relationship stretches back to their teenage years at La Masia but those warm memories have been torched in recent days, as a personal dispute has spiralled into a full-blown feud.
