Ivan Rakitic is already getting prepared for next season. The Croatian uploaded a photo to his Instagram photo after completing a personal training session ahead of next week's return to Barcelona. However a couple of fellow professionals, namely Samuel Umtiti and Marc Bartra, couldn't resist having a laugh at Rakitic's expense.
In the photo, Rakitic's shirt is drenched with sweat. Umtiti jokingly responded by saying: "It's water." Rakitic responded by saying: "I wish it was!"
Then came Barta who added: "It doesn't count if you just throw water over yourself, eh." Rakitic replied with: "Come here and I'll give you some classes."
Rakitic's future remains unknown at this point but he's scheduled to join up with his teammates on the 14th July.
