Barca has more than 500 local fan clubs spread across the world, while its championship matches attract a global TV audience.

To unravel the background to the Barca phenomenon, Jimmy Burns has unearthed police files and long-forgotten newspaper reports. He has travelled with supporters and has talked to people intimately linked to the club, from managers and players to groundsmen and doctors, whilst also gaining access to those who have conspired to gain political and financial control.All of our books are second hand, and while you may not get the exact copy shown in the picture, all of our books are in very good condition.
