> About FC Barcelona

Futbol Club Barcelona, also known as Barça, is a Spanish football club from Catalonia. It has historically been one of Europe's absolute top teams and remain so today.

The club was founded by a group of Swiss, English and Catalan men in 1899, and were one of the founding teams of La Liga in 1928. Along with Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao they have never been relegated from La Liga.


The club motto is mes que un club, which means more than a club, and if any of Europe's top team deserves that motto it is FC Barcelona.


Since the departure of Ronaldinho and coach Rijkaard in 2008, the team is organized around Argentine Leo Messi, backed up with Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez, Carles Puyol, Dani Alves, Gerard Piqué and new signing David Villa...


FC Barcelona is the first Spanish team to win the treble : Spanish League, Champions League and Spanish Cup during the 2008-2009 season with new coach Pep Guardiola, former captain of the team in the 90's.


The 2009-2010 hasn't been to bad either. The Blaugrana won their second consecutive Spanish League with an impressive record of 99 points (4 more points than eternal rivals Real Madrid). They have been eliminated in the semi-final of the Champions League after a breathtaking second leg played at the Camp Nou against Inter Milan.


Unlike all other major football teams FC Barcelona did not use to have a commercial sponsorship on their shirts. For the 2006/2007 season, they reached a five year agreement with UNICEF under which they donate almost $2 million per year, and thereby rejecting substantial amounts of money from potential sponsors. However, the club has other sponsorship agreements with companies like Nike, Coca-Cola, TV3, Audi, Estrella Damm, bwin and Telefonica.
