Initial tests conducted by the Spain staff reveal a major knee injury for Gavi. Concerns are growing at Barcelona, and further examinations are scheduled as the club is deeply worried about the severity of the injury. Despite Ferrán Torres dedicating his goal to Gavi, Barcelona is reportedly furious over Gavi starting what they deem a "meaningless game" against Cyprus. Gavi played the full 90 minutes, but his early exit against Georgia and subsequent ACL injury have left Barcelona perplexed and angry. The club expects confirmation of the injury later today, with initial signs indicating a serious setback. Gavi's emotional reaction in the dressing room adds to the somber atmosphere, and Spain manager Luis de la Fuente expresses devastation, stating, "In the dressing room, it feels like we lost." The circumstances surrounding Gavi's injury are leaving both Barcelona and Spain grappling with frustration and disbelief.
