Barcelona trained on Saturday ahead of the match against Pumas. In the last training session for the Joan Gamper, Neto was absent. The goalkeeper is about to leave for Bournemouth. Ferran Torres, who was present, was part of the training session with his teammates.

This Sunday at 20.00, Barcelona have a special match. The 'Cule' club will face Pumas at the Gamper. It will be the reencounter of Dani Alves with his former team.

The coach has already given the squad for the Trophy. It does not include Neto, who will leave for Bournemouth imminently. The goalkeeper was absent from Saturday's session, as was the case on Friday, and it is expected that his departure will be sealed shortly.

Ferran Torres did attend the training session. The first part of the session, according to 'Sport', was spent with the group as normal. He has not yet played so far this pre-season, as he has been out with a cut on his foot, but that's over. He has already been released and Xavi included him in the call-up list, so he could make his debut against the Mexican club.

The session was intense. There were physical exercises and a lot of touching the ball. Barça are confident that all this work over the summer will pay off and be noticed at the start of the 2022-23 season.
