Applause rang out when Arjen Robben took to the practice ground at Monday’s open training session. The Dutchman joined Joshua Kimmich and Rafinha for a punishing workout including shooting practice, dribbling and sprints. Robben is continuing to make good progress as he recovers from a groin injury sustained while playing for the Netherlands in early September. The winger has been sidelined since then, but FCB chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has voiced hopes that the 31-year-old might return to action after the current international break.
