The event saw huge numbers of fans wait patiently for the arrival of Ronaldinho, who appeared to enjoy meeting everyone before heading off for the squad's first training session since their arrival earlier in the day.

Once the formalities were carried out, the quartet paid a quick visit to the shop where they found a display of FC Barcelona replica shirts.

Laporta was also present at the store, which is in a shopping mall in the Chinese capital, along with technical secretary Txiki Begiristain and director Albert Perrin.
