Barcelona's squad trained on Thursday after their friendly win over Cartagena the night before.
Ernesto Valverde worked with those available, a limited selection given the international exodus. Ivan Rakitic did not participate even though he has left the Croatia squad - he has an Achilles problem.
Birthday boy Samuel Umtiti did appear even though he was not part of the Cartagena expedition. The session took place in rain on a gray Thursday.
Barca's next game is against Leganes next weekend. Valverde has some puzzles to work out, with Semedo injured and Sergi Roberto suspended. Who will play right back?
