Gavi and Gabriel Jesus return to Barcelona group training sessions

Summary

FC Barcelona returned to training at Ciutat Esportiva today following a two-day recovery period mandated by manager Hansi Flick. The squad prepares for its upcoming match against Valencia at Mestalla this Sunday. Midfielder Gavi resumed group training after missing recent matches against Athletic Club and Rayo Vallecano due to a leg injury sustained in the season opener against Elche. Additionally, new signing Gabriel Jesus participated in his first session with his teammates following his arrival on transfer deadline day. These additions bolster the squad as the club currently sits at the top of the La Liga table with nine points from three matches. Following the Valencia fixture, the team is scheduled to host Feyenoord at the Spotify Camp Nou on September 9 for the opening match of their Champions League campaign.
