Saturday- training and preparations

The squad trained at the Ciutat Esportiva this morning in their final session before tomorrow night’s game against Atletico Madrid. Éric Abidal missed the session and will not travel to Madrid. The French defender was given permission by the club to miss training to deal with a personal matter and he joins the injured Jeffren as the only players to miss the trip to the Spanish capital tomorrow as Guardiola named all 17 of his available first team squad for the game and Thiago.
