The few players remaining after the international exodus enjoyed a relaxed training session on Thursday morning.


This morning’s session was the first of two planned for Thursday. With the bulk of the players away with their national squads, the session was restricted to the same five senior players that trained on Wednesday: Pinto, Márquez, Pedro, Iniesta and Maxwell.

A light session

Guardiola active
