Several thousand fans gathered in the Al Nahyan stadium in Abu Dhabi to see the Argentinian side train, with PSG forward Messi there too, after arriving in the UAE just hours before.
The French side's player, after playing in this Sunday's thrashing of Auxerre, joined the squad with Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes, who were also in action with Juventus against Lazio.
