Barcelona cautious of Gavi risking burnout at a young age, warns Carlos Volcano

Barca staff are thrilled with Gavi's progress in training and are excited to continue tailoring his training program to his needs. The midfielder has been exceeding expectations and is fully committed to achieving his goals.

A coaching source told Sport: "He is like a bull, he goes for every ball."

As such, staff are concerned Gavi may be overdoing things and invite aggravating his injury if he isn't careful with his tackling in training games.

The midfielder is also visibly stronger than he was when he broke down on November 19 last year. Months in the gym have added muscle to his frame, with the midfielder now counting down the days to when he is clear to play competitively again.
