Gerard Pique is a member of the famed La Masia 'Class of 87' that saw him line up alongside future greats Lionel Messi and Cesc Fabregas.
Like the latter, he departed Barcelona for the Premier League, signing with English giants Manchester United in 2004 but found it difficult to dislodge the preferred partnership of Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand, although he did win some major trophies at Old Trafford.
A return to the Nou Camp in Guardiola's first season in charge of the senior team kickstarted Pique's legend and since then, he has gone on to cement his legacy as one of the best defenders of his generation.
The 32-year-old is highly decorated and has won everything at both club and international level, while his firebrand approach and unwavering commitment to the Catalan cause has installed him as a heavy fan-favourite in Barcelona.
Pique has so far made 527 appearances for Barcelona in all competitions, winning 28 major trophies, while he also won the World Cup and Euro with Spain and is well known for his business interests off the field.
