This morning Barça held their last training session at Camp Nou before tonight’s game with Manchester City. Ibrahimovic was back on the pitch 24 days after his presentation.

Just as if it were a competitive match, Barça have been training hard for the game against Manchester City in the 44th Joan Gamper Trophy to be played this evening at 10.15 pm.

The squad trained this morning to give a final polish to tactics for the encounter. Ibrahimovic was on the Camp Nou pitch for the second time since signing for the club, the first occasion being his presentation before 60,000 fans on 27 July. The atmosphere will be similar tonight for his first game in a Barça shirt.

No Henry or Abidal

This morning’s session featured the same players who turned out for the last session on Tuesday, including academy players Gai, Bartra, Thiago and Montoya. Abidal and Henry continued to receive treatment in the changing room.
