From the source

Barcelona have resumed training after two days off following defeat to Real Madrid, with Jules Kounde still working away from the main group ahead of Saturday’s La Liga meeting with Deportivo Alaves at the Camp Nou.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the latest session at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper brought encouraging news regarding Pau Cubarsi, while three young players from Barcelona’s reserve setup also joined Hansi Flick’s first team.

Kounde remains the main concern for Barcelona as he continues his recovery from an ankle sprain. The French defender missed both the trip to face PSG and the recent meeting with Real Madrid, and he has yet to return to full training with his teammates.
