Neymar returns to Barca

Neymar has returned to Barcelona training for the first time since last season.

The Brazilian star had a busy summer for his country, featuring in a disappointing Copa America before helping his side win football gold at their home Olympics and playing in the recent World Cup qualifiers.

The 24-year-old returns on the same day that new teammate Paco Alcacer is presented by the club, while Javier Mascherano, Jasper Cillessen, Samuel Umtiti and Lucas Digne have also returned from international breaks. 

Lionel Messi – still recovering from a groin injury – took part in the first training session before doing solo work as he aims to recover match fitness.
