Spanish midfielder Carles Alena returns to first-team training with Barcelona after three months on the sidelines.

Carles Alena has returned to first-team training with Barcelona after three months on the sidelines.

Alena, 20, has been with Barcelona since the age of seven and is closing in on 100 appearances for Barcelona B.

The midfielder has also scored once in seven appearances for his Spanish club's first team but has been on the sidelines for the last 12 weeks with a thigh problem.

Alena has now joined up with the first-team squad, however, and posted a message on his Twitter upon his return.

"It is a great day for me and I have really enjoyed it," Alena wrote on his Twitter account. "After the setback I now feel much better, getting up to speed and little by little I will feel better."

Alena, who signed a new three-year contract with Barcelona in 2017, will wear the number 26 shirt for the club this season.
