Gavi can make Qatar
In the league game between Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao, Gavi had to be taken off in the first half after a rough collision with Dani Garcia. After the match, he was seen walking with no problems. He just received a hard blow in the thigh, so him being at the World Cup is not in danger.

Xavi had to sub Gavi off in the first half of the game against Athletic Bilbao due to a thigh injury. Normally for this type of injury, the player takes a minute out at the side of the pitch before coming back on, but the Barca boss took the side of caution after his player clashed with Dani Garcia.
Once the tie was over, which ended up in a Barcelona rout, the midfielder was seen smiling and talking to his teammates. He was not limping, and lots of the media, such as 'SER' and 'COPE' said that the international only suffered a superficial injury. However, he could undergo tests soon.
His state is important not only for the club but also for the national team. There is less than a month to go until Luis Enrique's Spain side will be in Qatar, and him as well as Pedri look to be key for the midfield. In the unlikely event of his time out being prolonged, the manager still has a lot of other options.
He will also be available to play Barcelona's next game if he is feeling well enough, which happens to be against Bayern Munich in the Champions League, which can decide Xavi's men's fate. The maths make for grim reading, with getting out the group basically impossible, as the squad will have to go up against the Bavarian side who have become somewhat of a 'Black Beast'.
