FC BARCELONA – AWAY SHIRT 2009/2010
Catalan giants FC Barcelona need little introduction; they are one of the most famous and widely supported clubs in the world. The club has been home to some of the greatest players in modern football, including Lionel Messi, Ronaldo Nazario, Ronaldinho, Thierry Henry, and Zlatan Ibrahimović, who have all graced the 99,354‑seater Camp Nou stadium - which is being renovated with a view to seat 105,000!
Barcelona’s trophy cabinet is extraordinary, with a record 28 La Liga titles, 32 Copa del Rey victories, and numerous Spanish Super Cups, alongside 5 UEFA Champions League trophies and 3 FIFA Club World Cups, making them one of the most successful and decorated clubs in world football.
The club wore this smart away shirt during the 2009/2010 season, while under the management of their former player and current Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola. Barcelona enjoyed a highly successful campaign, claiming an amazing four of the six competitions available to them. In La Liga, they edged out rivals Real Madrid to win the title by 3 points. In Europe, they reached the Champions League semi-finals, losing narrowly 3–2 on aggregate to eventual winners Inter Milan.
During the January transfer window, Barcelona made a high-profile swap, sending Samuel Eto’o to Inter Milan in exchange for Zlatan Ibrahimović and 48 million euros at the time. At the heart of their attack, footballing royalty Lionel Messi finished as Barcelona’s top scorer for the season, netting 47 goals in all competitions, including 37 in La Liga and 8 in the Champions League, earning him the golden boot in both competitions.
