Ernesto Valverde led a recovery training session on Friday morning after Barcelona's Thursday night Copa del Rey game at Levante, with Sergi Samper and Thomas Vermaelen working with the team for part of the session.

Both are still recovering from their respective injuries as Samper suffered a break in his right leg while Vermaelen has had problems with his right femoral biceps.

Doctors will continue to monitor the progress of the two.

Meanwhile, many players from the B team joined in with the first team, including Inaki Pena, Moussa Wague, Oriol Busquets and Riqui Puig.
