The whole senior squad has trained at the Ciutat Esportiva before they fly out to the United States

FC Barcelona's first-team squad have trained this morning following the Trofeu Joan Gamper victory over Arsenal. The biggest talking point was the return of Lionel Messi, Philippe Coutinho and Arturo Vidal to the group following an extended holiday due to their international commitments. It was also the first appearance of new signing Junior Firpo as he continues to get to know his new teammates.

The light session took place on the Tito Vilanova pitch and it represents the first time Ernesto Valverde has had a full squad to choose from this summer. There was still some Barça B players involved: Iñaki Peña, Riqui Puig, Carles Pérez and Abel Ruiz all trained and will travel to the United States.

Following the session, the squad will make their way to El Prat airport in Barcelona. The team is set to face Napoli in two friendlies before returning to Spain next Sunday.
