We love a good stat here at JOE.
But this one is an absolute pearler.
All four managers in the Champions League last night played in the same Barcelona team back in 1996.
Paris St Germain’s Laurent Blanc, Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola, Porto’s Julen Lopetegui and Barcelona gaffer Luis Enrique were team-mates back in the heady days of 1996.
Mind. Blown.
If anyone needed any proof of the prowess of the Barcelona conveyor belt, behold this photo…
