Clué legend
Puyol, 34 years old, made his debut with the first team in the 1999/00 season. Since then, first as a wide right defender then as a centre back, he’s become one of the best defenders in the world. He’s been the team captain since 2004, he’s won - among other titles - 3 Champions Leagues, 5 Ligas and 2 Cups and he’s the second player in Barça history to play the most games in the Blaugrana strip.- 12/18/2012 Puyol, Xavi and Messi all renewed
