Barcelona players organise a team-bonding lunch in Gava
The objective was to talk about the new season... and signings
Ernesto Valverde and his staff were also present at the meal
Strange days at Barcelona amid the uncertainty in the transfer market. On top of that, Lionel Messi has not yet signed his contract renewal and, despite the win over Real Betis, the team's play is generating doubts.
With this scenario, the squad decided to order a team-bonding lunch, which was also assisted by Ernesto Valverde and his staff. It took place in the restaurant Les Marines, in Gava. It was a lunch that also served to analyse the immediate future and to integrate the new players (Nelson Semedo, Paulinho and Gerard Deulofeu) and to speak about the new signing who have not yet arrived.
The lunch took place after Wednesday's training session and was organised by the captains. It came just a day after part of the team had a meet up with two former teammates, Neymar and Dani Alves.
The motive for that celebration was Neymar's son's birthday, David Luca, but the players invited to the event made it very public with various photographs on social media, the first posted by Messi, which many took as a message for the Barcelona board.
