Ronaldinho's stunning skills at Barcelona unveiling in 2003 will never be beaten

Barcelona have made the most of the January transfer window despite their high-profile financial troubles.

The Blaugrana were one of the most active clubs out of the traditional European giants when it came to the winter market with Dani Alves, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Adama Traore and Ferran Torres all coming through the door.

It might have taken a pay cut for Samuel Umtiti and loaning out Philippe Coutinho to make it happen, but Barcelona have jumped through the hoops necessary to give Xavi’s squad a much-needed revamp.

And while it remains to be seen whether the Catalans have spent their money in the most effective way possible, you can’t fault Joan Laporta for ploughing on through the club’s economic woes.

However, regardless of the footballing and financial machinations at play here, one of the most interesting tropes that surrounds any Barcelona transfer is – of course – the presentation.

Spanish football simply do transfer unveilings better than anyone else with countless examples involving Barca, as well as Real Madrid, seeing tens of thousands of fans packing into their stadiums to witness the new purchase in action.

And no unveiling is complete without said signing showing their skills off to the masses with a few keepy-uppies regardless of whether there’s 1,000 or 100,000 supporters in attendance.
