Another hard day's work at the Ciutat Esportiva

Morning session includes plenty of jolly japes to wish French defender Lucas Digne well on his 25th birthday - with the players back at work on Friday evening too

The FC Barcelona first team continued their routine of morning and evening training sessions on Friday, with Ernesto Valverde's men in action twice on Pitch 7 at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.

Both workouts featured the available first team players plus Barça B's Palencia, C. Pérez, Monchu, Abel Ruiz, Riqui Puig, Collado, J. Cuenca, Mingueza and Cucurella.

Rafinha undertook specific work separate from the group.

Before morning training got underway, the squad wished a happy 25th birthday to Lucas Digne, with a traditional fun guard of honour for the Frenchman.

Part of the morning session was open to the press, but second workout was conducted entirely behind closed doors.
