Laporta brings back Barca's Christmas dinner

Barcelona's Christmas dinner will take place on Thursday. All Barcelona employees are invited and this tradition returns after having been cancelled because of the pandemic and financial issues.
After many years, at the special request of Joan Laporta, the players and the coaching staff will have to attend the Christmas event organised for all the club's employees, according to 'Sport'.
The only ones who will be absent will be Jules Kounde and Ousmane Dembele, given that they will be on holiday after having reached the final of the World Cup. They were beaten in that game by Argentina, led by former Barca player Leo Messi.
The Spanish players are expected to return to training on 19th December while those who were knocked out in the quarter-finals will be back a couple of days afterwards.
