Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez & Arturo Vidal return to Barcelona training

Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Arturo Vidal returned to Barcelona training on Thursday ahead of Saturday’s clash with Espanyol.

The trio had been granted extra time off over the Christmas holidays to make the long trip back to South America but are now back to work with the rest of the squad.

Messi, Suarez and Vidal have just one more training session with their team-mates before Saturday’s clash against Espanyol.

The team return on Friday for their final session and then manager Ernesto Valverde will name his squad for the short trip to the RCDE Stadium.
