Vermaelen returns to full training with Barcelona
The defender missed the Athletic game with a bruised ankle
Barcelona defender Thomas Vermaelen returned to training. After spending Tuesday in the gym with Sergio Busquets, he trained with the B team at the Ciutat Esportiva de Sant Joan Despí on Wednesday.
Ernesto Valverde took the session with Nelson Semedo, Denis Suárez, Paco Alcácer, Sergi Roberto and Aleix Vidal all involved.
The only person missing was Busquets, who is out for three weeks after breaking a bone in his foot in the win against Chelsea.
Vermaelen, who Barça want to hand a new contract to, missed the win against Athletic Bilbao last weekend after bruising his ankle in training.
It remains to be seen if he will join up with the Belgium national team for their friendly next Tuesday after being included in the original squad.
