Back to work at the Ciutat Esportiva

After taking Monday off, the players were back at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper on Tuesday for a morning session on the Tito Vilanova field. 

Alejandro Balde, who is still recovering from injury, did part of the exercises with the main group. They were also joined by Alexis Olmedo from the youth team. 

This was the only session for today, but on Wednesday they'll be back to one in the morning and another in the early evening.
