The club that changed football

1899 · Founding

On 29 November 1899, Swiss footballer Joan Gamper founded FC Barcelona with eleven co-founders. Born Hans-Max Gamper in Switzerland, he adopted the Catalan name Joan after settling in Barcelona. What started as a small club in Catalonia grew into an institution. The motto "Mes que un club" was adopted during the Franco era, when the club became a symbol of Catalan identity and resistance.

Ronaldinho arrived from PSG in 2003 and brought Barcelona back to the summit of world football. Two La Liga titles, the 2006 Champions League and back-to-back FIFA World Player of the Year awards. The 2005–06 kit became one of the most iconic shirts in the club's history.
