Meanwhile, an eBay charity auction for five special units featuring autographs from some of FCB's top players including Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Dani Alves will launch on September 12(th), with all proceeds to be donated to the FC Barcelona Foundation.
As its official partner in the mobile phone device category for the next three years, OPPO will collaborate with FC Barcelona on a wide range of activities and products, including football events, fan activities, TV advertisements and special-edition accessories, as well as an LED display at the Spanish club's home stadium of Camp Nou.
About FC Barcelona
FC Barcelona was founded on November 29, 1899, by initiative of a Swiss gentleman called Hans Maximilian Gamper, popularly known as Joan Gamper. Since it was founded, the club has had 44 different presidents. From Walter Wild to Josep Maria Bartomeu, Barca has grown into a massive social phenomenon that reaches far beyond the bounds of mere sport. The club has grown along with the city around it, and has come to represent Barcelona and Catalonia all around the world.
FC Barcelona is one of the football clubs with more members in the world and its achievements have also made it one of the most successful. The many famous victories and all-time greats that have played for the club (Kubala, Cruyff, Maradona, Romario, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Messi, and so many more) form an important part of the Barca legacy. But these would be no more than historical anecdotes if it wasn't for the extraordinary social reality behind the events.
