Johan Cryuff is a name that will always be remembered at Barcelona. The Dutch legend was a real force during his playing days. His individual brilliance earned him several individual awards including the IFFHS European Player of the Century and 3 Ballon d'Or awards.
Johan Cruyff represented Barcelona between 1973 and 1978 and helped the team to their first La Liga title in 14 years. He also helped Barca to the Copa Del Rey and other trophies.
After retiring, Cruyff emulated his mentor Rinus Michels by managing a young Ajax side to win the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1987. He returned to manage Barcelona's 'Dream Team' in 1988 where he led the team to glory after glory with his tiki-taka system.
He helped Barca to their first Champions League trophy in history, as well as four consecutive La Liga trophies during his incredible managerial career.
His dream team produced the greatest set of footballers in history. All of these footballers became successful in their careers, with many of them making great impacts both during their playing days and after retirement.
