Barcelona back to training without Roberto

Christmas is already just a memory for Barcelona's players who returned to training on Sunday afternoon.

The bulk of the squad got back to work at the club's training facilities, but there were some notable absences.

Sergi Roberto missed out, though his absence was granted by Ernesto Valverde after his mother passed away on Saturday.

Ansu Fati did less than most as he had some physical problems.

Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Neto and Arturo Vidal are expected back from South America on January 2.
