Despite only signing a few hours ago, Keita Balde has already began training at Appiano Gentile in view of Saturday’s Serie A opener away to Sassuolo according to a report from Sky Sport 24.

The Senegalese attacker, as per the report, joined Croatian duo Sime Vrsaljko and Ivan Perisic on the training pitches, both of whom are trying to build fitness levels up having only returned to training on Friday following an extended break after the World Cup in which they helped Croatia to finish as runners-up.
