The Malaguista squad began with a video session before stepping on to the field of play. The players then underwent the usual warm-up workout, and were subsequently divided into two large groups to take part in mini-matches on a reduced-sized pitch.

Ontiveros trained at the same pace as his teammates during the session. Meanwhile, Ricca continued with his recovery process, under the instruction of fitness trainer, Hugo Camarero. Keko, Miguel Torres, Peñaranda and Luis remained in the gym this morning, separately from the group.

The usual representatives from the MCF Academy were part of first team training today: Kellyan (goalkeeper) Álex Robles, Mula, José Carlos and Maty, with defender, Álex Sánchez joining them.

Following the session, the players headed to Salesianos Málaga school for the traditional floral offering to the ‘Divine Shepherdess’, the patron saint of sport.
