On Monday morning, FC Barcelona held their final training session at the Joan Gamper Sports City before traveling to London to face Chelsea tomorrow in the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League group stage.

The absence of midfielder Pedri stood out, as he continues to work separately from the group to recover from a hamstring injury since the end of October.

On the other hand, Hans Flick regained two key players, Marcus Rashford and Frenkie de Jong, who had missed recent matches due to the flu and suspension, respectively. Additionally, Alejandro Balde became available again after leaving Saturday's match against Athletic Bilbao at halftime.

Flick continues to follow the usual training routine this season, with the team training in the morning in Barcelona before traveling in the evening after lunch, while press conferences have been postponed to Stamford Bridge stadium.

The Barcelona delegation will depart for London today at 16:45 Egypt time, with Hans Flick and Raphinha scheduled to hold the official press conference before the match at 20:45. The coach is expected to highlight the return of De Jong and Rashford.

Barcelona arrives in London following a series of positive results and with some key players returning, but they understand that facing Chelsea is a tough test that requires their best performance in a crucial Champions League match.
