Historic! Joan Laporta adds his 16th title as president of Barça

FC Barcelona has made a radical turn in its dynamics under the orders of Hansi Flick. After a winless season, the German took over as coach, and since his arrival, excitement has skyrocketed among Barça fans, who see their team becoming one of the best, if not the best, on the continent just six months after the German landed in the Catalan city.

However, none of this would have been possible without the determination of Joan Laporta, the main architect behind the signing of the former coach of Bayern Munich last summer. The president of the blue and garnet entity blindly believed in the German coach, and now he is reaping the rewards, as the culés lifted their first title of the season last Sunday and the executive increased his personal trophy count since returning to the helm of the institution.

Laporta adds 16 titles as culé

Since taking over the presidency of Barça in 2003 until today, 'Jan' has accumulated 16 titles in his cabinet. During his first term (2003-2010), the president secured 12 trophies, distributed as follows: 4 La Ligas, 1 Copa del Rey, 3 Supercopa de España, 2 Champions League, 1 UEFA Super Cup, and 1 FIFA Club World Cup.

Subsequently, in his second term (2021-) Laporta has already recorded 4 titles, divided into: 1 La Liga, 1 Copa del Rey, and 2 Supercopa de España. These titles, it should be noted, are even more commendable considering the delicate situation the club was in before the president's arrival and the great present the team is experiencing today, four years after his return, highlighting the enormous work of the blue and garnet president.
