Speaking at a press conference today, Barcelona boss Hansi Flick confirmed Gavi is fine and much improved on how he felt after the previous match.
He said: "We must wait a week for him to return to the team."
Barça had confirmed in an official statement that Gavi suffered a bruise to his right knee against Elche. Medical tests showed the injury was nothing more than a bruise, and the club expect him back in group training soon, though they did not put a date on it.
