List of FC Barcelona records and statistics

FC Barcelona is a football club based in Barcelona that competes in La Liga, the top football league in Spain. The club was formed in 1899 by a group of Swiss, English and Spanish men led by Joan Gamper, and played its first friendly match on 8 December 1899. Initially, Barcelona played against other local clubs in various Catalan tournaments. In 1929 the club became one of the founding members of La Liga, Spain's first truly national league. As of 2010, Barcelona is one of three clubs never to have been relegated from the top level of Spanish football, the others being Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid.[1]

Barcelona has amassed various records since the foundation. Regionally, domestically, and continentally, they have set several records in winning various official and unofficial competitions. Since they began playing in regional competitions to the end of the Catalan championship in 1940, they won a record 23 titles from a possible 38. Domestically, the club has a record number of titles in the still-running competitions, namely the Copa del Rey and the Spanish SuperCup.

The club has signed several high-profile players, paying large transfer fees for some of the most decorated players. The club paid a record £5 million for Diego Maradona in 1982 and sold him two years later for another record £7 million to Napoli. The club's players have received a record seven FIFA World Player awards.

Honours

Barcelona won their first trophy in 1902 when they won the Copa Macaya, which was the predecessor to the Catalan Championship. The club won the Catalan Championship a record 23 times during the 40-year span of the tournament.[3]

When national league was established in 1929, the importance of the regional league declined, and it was abandoned in 1940. From then on, Barcelona did not participate in regional competitions until the establishment of the Copa Catalunya in 1993, a cup they have won a record six times. Barcelona has participated every year and won six times.[3] Barcelona was one of the founding members of La Liga, and is one of three clubs never to have been relegated, the two others being Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao.[4] It is the second most successful club in Spain, having won a total of 62 titles: 21 La Liga titles, a record 25 Copa del Reys, a record ten Spanish Super Cups, the only Copa de Oro Argentina, three Copa Eva Duarte titles and two League Cups.

The club is also one of the most successful clubs in European and World football, having won 17 official trophies in total, 12 of which are UEFA competitions.[5] They have won four UEFA Champions League titles, a record four UEFA Cup Winners' Cups, a record three Inter-Cities Fairs Cups (the forerunner to the UEFA Europa League), four UEFA Super Cups and two FIFA Club World Cups. In December 2009, Barcelona won the Club World Cup for the first time. They won it for a second time in December 2011.

(Barça is considering application to the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) to make this equivalent to a La Liga title, after learning that the RFEF considered to recognize Levante FC's Copa de la España Libre of the same year as equivalent to Copa del Rey. The RFEF later denied Levante their request.).[22][23]

FC Barcelona's founder, Joan Gamper, was one of the club's first football players and holds the record for most goals in one match, with nine goals scored.[24] Thirteen years after the foundation of Barcelona, Paulino Alcántara joined the club and went on to become one of the player legends in the club, with a record 357 goals in 357 matches, making him the player with most goals scored for Barcelona in all competitions.[25] In the years since Alcántara joined, Barcelona has employed some of the world's most accoladed players, with seven FIFA World Player and Ballon d'Or winners among the previous and current Barcelona players. This makes it the club with the most FIFA World Player awards received by the players.
