Frenkie De Jong Given the All-Clear for Barcelona Return as Gavi Faces Season-Ending Injury
According to Mundo Deportivo’s Mario Rios, Frenkie De Jong has received the medical green light to rejoin Barcelona in training. The midfielder was spotted participating with his teammates as they prepare for the upcoming game against Rayo Vallecano this weekend. De Jong is anticipated to feature in the squad for the Rayo match, potentially making a comeback off the bench and marking his first minutes since Barcelona’s victory over Celta Vigo in mid-September.
However, amidst this positive development for De Jong, Barcelona was dealt a severe blow this week with the unfortunate news of Gavi’s anterior cruciate ligament rupture during international duty. The young talent is now set to miss the remainder of the season, leaving a void in the squad.
