Luis Enrique put his men through the paces as the Barcelona players returned to training for their first session of 2017, ahead of their Copa del Rey Round of 16 clash against Athletic Bilbao.

Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Neymar, and Javier Mascherano all participated, having returned from an extended Christmas break.

However, goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen remains unavailable as he continues to recover from a long-term injury to the soleus in his left leg.

Check out the training video from Barcelona’s official YouTube channel.
