New Argentine signing Ramon Vega has been added to senior training at Barcelona this week.

Xavi filled out his group on Tuesday morning with several members of the reserve team, including the former Argentinos Juniors left-back, who can also act as a central defender.

The defensive problems caused by international injuries, above all, have affected the right-hand area of defence, where Jules Koundé and Ronald Araujo leave a gap that is difficult to fill. Both central defenders can be used as right-backs. There are also reports Hector Bellerin is out too after a problem in training on Tuesday.

In addition to Vega, Nil Ruiz, Casadó, Carbonell, Txus Alba, Roberto and Luismi, all of them from the B team, were used. Robert Lewandowski and Andreas Christensen, among others, were present at this session, as they have fulfilled their international commitments. Both played 180 minutes with Poland and Denmark, respectively.
