The group bonded at a restaurant in the Catalan capital on Wednesday night

Barcelona’s squad and technical team met up on Wednesday night in a private room in restaurant Via Veneto to dine. The Michelin Star restaurant hosted an encounter full of good vibes and laughter. The players were bonding ahead of games against Real Betis in La Liga then the crucial Champions League clash with Bayern Munich next week.

At the dinner, where Pedri celebrated his Kopa Trophy with his team-mates, the player were treated to some baby eels, off the usual tasting menu and cooked for the occasion. They also ate other fish, meat and dessert.

Xavi also welcomed some B teamers to eat too, as they have been training with the first team. Dani Alves was there too and his sequinned jacket was among the more eye-catching attire worn.

A different type of meal and occasion, then, than the meeting between Joan Laporta, Rafa Yuste and then coach Ronald Koeman held there are few months ago, so they could get on the same page.
