Gerard Pique is surely one of the most successful talents to ever play the game for FC Barcelona. Having played for the majority of his youth in La Masia, he left to join English giants Manchester United. However, after four years away, in 2008, Pique re-signed for his boyhood club and became one of the most important defenders in their history.

With a total of 571 appearances to his name for the Blaugaurana, Pique is probably the most successful La Masia graduate to still be playing for the side.

Pique is a four-time Champions League winner (3 with Barcelona and 1 with Man United). He is also an English champion with Manchester United, an eight-time winner of the Spanish First Division and a seven-time Spanish Cup winner. He has also gone on to win the World Cup in 2010, and the European Championship in 2012 with the Spanish national team.

Gerard Pique is the best La Masia graduate to still be playing for Barcelona in the 2021-22 campaign.
