Coach Ursea called upon a fair number of players from the Academy this Wednesday in order to boost the numbers at the morning training session. While several Aiglons are still away with their national sides - or on their way back from them - four days before the trip to Nantes, new faces took part in the training session "with the grown ups". Here at the photos from the morning.
