Barça had the first of two training sessions at 9.00 this morning, featuring the same 14 players as on Thursday plus Gerard Piqué, who was involved in some of the group work. Barça B’s Martín Montoya and Jonathan Dos Santos also joined in.

Meanwhile, Sergio Busquets worked out in isolation as he recovers from a knock, but Xavi Hernández trained as normal.

New session tomorrow

The next training session will be on Saturday morning. Afterwards, Josep Guardiola will speak to the press ahead of the Spanish Supercup, and then the team will be travelling to Madrid.
