Messi returns to Barca training

Lionel Messi returned to training at Barcelona on Friday after
sitting out Thursday's session for "personal reasons"

Concerns were raised over a potential hamstring injury for the
Argentina captain after he was seen clutching the back of his leg
during Barca's 1-1 Champions League draw with Bayer
Leverkusen on Wednesday.

But the 28-year-old was shown on a Vine on Barcelona's official
Twitter account walking on to the training pitch alongside team-
mate Luis Suarez.

Should Messi prove to be injury-free it would be a huge fillip for
coach Luis Enrique ahead of Barca's clash with Deportivo
La Coruna at Camp Nou on Saturday.

The European champions then fly out to Japan for the Club
World Cup with Barca scheduled to play either Club America
or Guangzhou Evergrande in Thursday's semi-final.
