It is a special day in Catalonia as Barcelona celebrates its 125th anniversary with festivities organised on the day.
The buildup for the event has been massive and the hype culminates in a mega-show at the prestigious Liceu Theatre tonight with several club legends, players and administrators present.
With the big day finally arriving, a number of Barcelona legends from recent decades have taken to their social media to congratulate their club and humbly express gratitude for the contributions they were able to make in its rich history.
Former Barcelona left-back and now Inter Miami defender Jordi Alba was one who took to his social media and said it was a “Great pride to be part of its great history by contributing a small grain of sand.”
El mejor club del mundo cumple hoy 125 años, y para mí es todo un orgullo haber sido parte de su gran historia aportando mi pequeño granito de arena.
Y, por supuesto, felicitar especialmente en un día como hoy, a todos los aficionados/as y socios/as porque sin ellos este club… pic.twitter.com/la9ObNtoGh
