Training schedule for Gamper Trophy and Spanish Super Cup week
The Camp Nou welcomes both Chapecoense and Real Madrid in the first week of football in the FC Barcelona stadium - here's a guide to what's happening when and where
The Camp Nou is ready for its first action of the new season! This week not only brings the Joan Gamper Trophy match against Chapecoense on Monday but also the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup against Real Madrid on Sunday.
But as the adage goes, practice makes perfect, and so on the days when the first team are not in action, Ernesto Valverde has scheduled training sessions.
