Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his team of coaches traveled to Barcelona on Saturday for a spy mission against their opponents in the Champions League.
The champions of Spain, Barcelona, faced second-ranked Atletico Madrid in the La Liga at Camp Nou on Saturday night, four days before facing United at Old Trafford in the first leg quarter-final of the Champions League on Wednesday.
Solskjaer, badistant Mike Phelan and coaches Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna took the opportunity to better watch their rivals before returning in time to follow United's training at 11 am Sunday.

The United team is also training Saturday with Marcus Rashford and Alexis Sanchez to improve their fitness.
Rashford treated ankle injuries, but he was shaken by the intense cold that hit him earlier this week and made him miss the Wolves defeat.
Inter Milan is interested in Romelu Lukaku, who will discuss his future at United at the end of the season.
The Italians are considering replacing coach Luciano Spalletti with Antonio Conte, but any draft agreement for Lukaku would be a serious test of their budget.
