New Barcelona coach Xavi took charge of first-team training for the first team on Tuesday at the Ciutat Esportiva after being unveiled at the club on Monday.
The 41-year-old is without a host of players due to injury and international call-ups which meant several youngsters joined the session and had the chance to impress the new boss.
Perhaps the most notable call-up was for 17-year-old Ilias Akhomach who has already been tipped to play for the first team before the season’s out.
It’s perhaps no surprise to see Ilias in training after he scored a brace for Barcelona B during Saturday’s win over Sevilla Atletico with Xavi watching in the stands.
