Quique Setien has Barcelona training in blindfolds ahead of Real Betis clash

Quique Setien had his Barcelona players training with blindfolds on Saturday in their final session before their game against Real Betis on Sunday.

A number of players including Arturo Vidal, Antoine Griezmann, Nelson Semedo, Riqui Puig and Samuel Umtiti were all spotted doing an exercise with snoods covering their faces.

Marca reckon the exercise was to help the players improve “coordination and orientation” and reckons it took them a while to get the hang of things.

It’s not the first time that Setien has taken an unusual, playful approach to Barca training.
