Then it was to the airport where our players and staff boarded the flight to Sicily ahead of a special gala dinner upon our arrival which was followed by a hike for Pep Guardiola, Mateo Kovacic and staff members the day after.
It was then time to face Palermo as our preparations for the 2025/26 campaign continued and we recorded a strong 3-0 win thanks to goals from Erling Haaland and Tijjani Reijnders (two).
Before heading home there was still time for birthday celebrations for captain Bernardo Silva!
