Sampdoria were put through their paces with an intense double training session at the Centro Sportivo Gloriano Mugnaini in Bogliasco on Thursday ahead of the match against Torino on Sunday.

In the morning, the players worked through a series of fitness tests designed to gauge the physical conditioning of each player at this stage of the season.

In the afternoon, after a visit from president Massimo Ferrero, the group focused on technique drills, tactics exercise and mini practice games. Primavera youngsters Mohamed Bahlouli and Marco Pompetti joined in.

Gonzalo Maroni focused on his individual recovery programme.
