Andre Gomes returns to training ahead of Espanyol clash

Barcelona are preparing to face their rivals in Cornella

FC Barcelona prepared for the derby clash in La Liga against Espanyol on Sunday today, although they were also recovering from the 1-0 win over Valencia on Thursday in the Copa del Rey.

Ernesto Valverde took charge of the session as usual, and Andre Gomes was back after being out for a few day with digestion problems.

The coach called up various Barca B players - Aleñá, Galarreta, O. Busquets, David Costas and Marc Cardona, along with Juvenil player Lazar Carevic.

Gerard Pique also celebrated his 31st birthday in the session. Barcelona train again at 11am Saturday.
