A headline member of the defensive ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona reiterated his commitment to the cause in the early hours of Sunday morning.
As much came in the aftermath of Barca’s return to action.
Xavi’s troops are of course fresh off an important victory on Saturday night, which saw them keep alive the club’s feint title hopes courtesy of a hard-fought victory over Cádiz.
Rest will now be on the cards, ahead of swiftly turning attentions back towards matters on the continent, in the 2nd leg of the club’s Champions League quarter-final showdown with Paris Saint-Germain.
As alluded to above, though, one member of the Blaugrana’s ranks who was evidently in no mood for rest post-Cádiz was Jules Koundé.
As much was made clear by way of the Frenchman’s social media activity early on Sunday morning.
Upon arriving back in Catalunya from Andalusia at 4AM, Koundé got straight back to work in the gym at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.
This came despite Xavi’s squad having been pencilled in for a recovery training session at 12.30 this afternoon.
The former Sevilla man, for his part, played the final half hour of his side’s victory at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla, expected to return to starting duties against PSG on Tuesday amid a fine stretch of recent form.
