Satisfaction as Barça party fly out

Marc Parramon / Jordi Clos


The Club party who have made the trip to Zurich expressed their satisfaction at the presence of the three Barça players in the final of the Ballon D’Or award, with a number agreeing: “this is a great day for FC Barcelona”.


There was a large party of Directors, ex-coaches and ex-players on the first flight out to Zurich for the Award ceremony this afternoon and Barça TV and www.fcbarcelona.cat caught up with them before they left.

President Rosell thanks 30 years of hard work

President Sandro Rosell expressed the general feeling that: “this is undoubtedly a great day for FC Barcelona. It’s one of those occasions that you know it will be difficult to repeat. Thanks to the hard work and time given by so many people over the last 30 years, this day has come and we are now seeing the result of all their efforts”.

Rosell has no preferences for the winner: “the Club is happy that whoever wins, Barça will be victorious”, and added “I’m sure that all three of them will be pleased whoever wins. They are three great teammates, as they show out on the pitch”.

Despite the upbeat mood at the Club, Sr Rosell also had words for Angel Pedraza: “this is a great day for the club, but it’s bitter sweet with the news of Angel Pedraza’s death”.

Luis Suárez

“It’s a great satisfaction because I’ll be in good company, I’ll be meeting up with people who who I’ve shared a lot with”.

Hristo Stòitxkov

“I’m very proud –it’s not just anybody who wins this”.

“We are enjoying the best years of the Club and it’s down to the work done from the youth teams to the first team”.

“Personally, when I won I was very emotional. It’s an award for the family, friends, coaches, teammates, fans…..”

Àngel Mur

“I imagine they must be feeling so happy and so satisfied”.

Pere Gratacós

“This is a success, not just for two or three players, but also for a sporting model which started many years ago with Oriol Tort and Joan Martínez Vilaseca and has been very well continued by the other co-ordinators”.

“It’s clear that Barça wanted this way. The Club model will never change, we’ll always stick by it”.

Joaquim Rifé

“Messi is one of the best players in the World and one of the best people to come through the Club”.

Toño de la Cruz

“It’s a non-stop party. It’s an extraordinary thing for our footballing philosophy. This is the biggest prize a player can receive”.

“The best thing about these ceremonies is the chance to meet up with people who you have had important times with in the past”.
