Introduction
FC Barcelona, also known as Barça, is a Spanish professional football club based in Barcelona, Catalonia. Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss, Catalan, German, and English footballers led by Joan Gamper, the club has become a symbol of Catalan culture and Catalanism, hence the motto "Més que un club" ("More than a club"). Unlike many other football clubs, the supporters own and operate Barcelona.
Barcelona is one of the most successful clubs in Spanish and European football. The club has won 26 La Liga titles, 31 Copa del Rey titles, 5 UEFA Champions League titles, 3 UEFA Europa League titles, 3 UEFA Super Cup titles, 5 FIFA Club World Cup titles, and 3 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup titles.
The club's home stadium is Camp Nou, which is the largest stadium in Europe with a capacity of 99,354. Barcelona's current manager is Xavi Hernández, who took over in November 2021.
Recent History
Barcelona has had a mixed recent history. The club won the treble of La Liga, Copa del Rey, and UEFA Champions League in 2015, but has struggled to replicate that success in recent years. Barcelona finished third in La Liga in 2022, and was knocked out of the UEFA Champions League in the round of 16.
However, the club has made some important signings in recent transfer windows, including Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, and Andreas Christensen. These signings have given Barcelona a boost, and the club will be hoping to challenge for major trophies in the 2023-24 season.
