Maciej Wilusz and Mateusz Lis, having returned from loans joined the group together with the newest transfer - Sisinio. Denis Thomalla was missing on the Monday session since the footballer is currently undergoing medical tests at a German club.

"It was an opening training session. There was a general warm-up, exercises focused on the possession of the ball and also a small match to be played at the end. We did not introduce any tactics since it is the first session. All we wanted to do was let the players play with the ball after the long break," explained Urban's assistant, Kibu Vicuna.
