Barcelona president Joan Laporta has caused a stir all summer with his transfer dealings and caught the attention again on Sunday night.
The club chief was in the crowd to watch Barcelona take on Real Valladolid and you really couldn’t miss the fact he had a pretty impressive black eye.
According to Sport, it seemed Laporta had turned up wearing sunglasses but was happy to take them off when fans asked to have a look at his shiner.
