Gumbau, Samper, Kaptoum & Aitor train with Barça

Gerard Gumbau, Sergi Samper, Wilfrid Kaptoum and Aitor Cantalapiedra all trained with Barcelona on Monday. 

All four Barça B players are expected to travel with the first team this week for the Copa del Rey clash at third-tier Villanovense.

Gumbau has been a regular with the first team due to the injury-crisis affecting Luis Enrique's squad, but the other three have not feature for the seniors this term. 

Kaptoum only returned to action earlier in Octover after suffering a hamstring injury in pre-season. 

Barça travel to Villanovense on Wednesday for the first leg of their Copa del Rey tie, with the second leg at Camp Nou at the beginning of December. 

Luis Enrique is expected to rotate his squad and give some players a chance to play some more minutes. 

As well as the four B team player, Douglas could also come into the side, while Thomas vermaelen may make his return to action following an injury.
