Ousmane Dembélé was this morning's focus at the Joan Gamper Sport City, Barça's training ground. The brilliant new signing, dressed in shorts, completed his first training session alone, on a day that a large part of the players were with their national teams.

Ernesto Valverde led a session with few players, including some from Barça B. Douglas, Aleix Vidal, Nélson Semedo, Sergi Roberto, Denis Suárez and Paco Alcácer were the players who trained, as well as Dembélé. The French footballer is in the middle of getting back into the rhythm of training and competing, having not trained with Borussia Dortmund for some days to force his move to Barça.

The week, marked by the loss of so many players to their national teams, will finish with some days' holiday before the return of La Liga. On Wednesday and Thursday all available footballers not playing in the qualifying matches for the 2018 World Cup will have morning training, but from Friday to Sunday they'll have a short holiday.
