According to Mundo Deportivo, the sons of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Gerard Pique have already started at Barcelona, taking part in their first sessions with FCBEscola - the programme designed for junior members at Barcelona with the aim of developing their skills from an extremely young age.
Thiago Messi, Benjamin Suarez and Milan Pique were all part of a group of 25 youngsters who the club will look to improve.

The fathers of all three are understood to have watched on from the sidelines as the first session took place.
