The FC Barcelona expedition has arrived in Fort Lauderdale (Florida) around eight in the afternoon, two in the morning Spanish time, with some two hours delay compared to the scheduled time, to start the tour by USA. The plane that transported the Barcelona team together with directors and companions has traveled an hour and a half late due to administrative problems. A strong storm greeted the team in Fort Lauderdale, leading to a bumpy landing. After landing and passport control, transfer by coach from the airport to the concentration hotel, where a group of fans was waiting.

Both will direct the work sessions on the field until Xavi can join, who will have live information on everything that happens in the training sessions that he cannot attend: at least those on Sunday and, very possibly, those on Monday, since your visa problems will not be solved on a public holiday.
