President Sandro Rosell was joined by other board members as he offered made the traditional floral tribute to FC Barcelona’s founder Joan Gamper.

The new Blaugrana supremo was accompanied by Vice President of the Institutional Area and directors Ramón Pont and Josep Ramon Vidal-Abarca. The Gamper family was represented by the founder’s grandchildren Manel and Xavier and his great grandson Joan.

At 10:30 the floral tributes began as people came forward to lay flowers and wreaths in honour of the man that started Barça.

It was the first time that Rosell made the offering, which is an annual event on the day of the Trofeo Gamper game, as president of the club.
