FC Barcelona trained on Sunday at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper. While those that started the 2-0 win against Malaga took part in a recovery session, the rest of the squad began to prepare for Tuesday's Copa del Rey trip to Murcia. 

Coach Ernesto Valverde called up seven players from the B team to train, too: Jose Arnaiz, Carles Aleñá, Marc Cucurella, Oriol Busquets, Vitinho, Carles Pérez and Adrià Ortolá. In summary, one goalkeeper, a defender, four midfielders and a forward. 

 

It's expected that a number of them will be included in Valverde's squad for Tuesday's game in Murcia, which is the first leg of the tie. The squad will be announced on Monday and is unlikely to include the likes of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Andres Iniesta.
