F.C. Barcelona Program
This program offers valuable insight into the youth development of F.C. Barcelona.
The Academy
Developing home grown players through its youth academy has been an important pillar of the club’s success. Products of the youth academy who now play on the first team include famous names like Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta, Gerard Piqué, Jordi Alba, Sergi Roberto and Sergio Busquets.
The F.C. Barcelona youth academy is known as ‘La Masia’, or ‘The Farmhouse’ in English. The academy is world-renowned, and arguably played an important role in the Spanish national team's success at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and also in the 2008 and 2012 European Championships. The academy’s homegrown greats Andrés Iniesta, Lionel Messi and Xavi were all three top contenders for the Ballon d'Or in 2010.
The Club
F.C. Barcelona was founded in 1899 and is considered one of the best clubs in the world today. They are the reigning Copa del Rey champions, having won 29 total, and will play once more for the title against Sevilla F.C. on April 21, 2018. The club has also won 24 La Liga titles, 5 Champions League titles and 12 Spanish Super Cups. F.C. Barcelona was the first European club in history to achieve the ‘continental treble’ twice, winning La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the UEFA Champions League in 2009 and again in 2015.
