Barca trained without Bellerin: defender bid farewell to teammates

Barcelona trained on Tuesday at the Joan Gamper training complex. Hector Bellerin was absent as he requested a leave of absence from the club to complete his deal with Sporting. Angel Alarcon and Lamine Yamal trained with the first team.

Alarcon could be on the squad list for the match against Real Betis on Wednesday but Xavi ruled out Lamine Yamal. The manager said the striker trained with the first team to replace Bellerin in the training session.

Ousmane Dembele also did not train with the squad because he injured his left leg in the match against Girona last Saturday.

Xavi Hernandez will announce the squad list on Wednesday ahead of the trip to Sevilla. Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres will return to the squad.
