"I feel fortunate to be back"

Midfielder Gavi, who returned to the pitch on Sunday after more than eleven months out with a long-term injury, admitted that it was a long wait, especially at the beginning, but that he felt like a footballer again.
"I am very happy to come back after so long out injured, I have been dreaming about this for many months and I am grateful to my teammates who made the process easier for me," Gavi told LaLiga TV.
"The hardest thing is not playing, watching from the outside. It's frustrating, it's tough... I feel fortunate to be back."
The midfielder came on in the final stages for his first minutes in a Barcelona shirt since suffering a severe knee injury in November 2023.
