Top 10 Barcelona signings under President Joan Laporta
#8 Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Position: Forward | In Barcelona: 2009-2011)
Another player just like Toure who was a big name transfer but did not experience much success with the Catalans was Zlatan Ibrahimovic. A giant personality in the footballing world and one who is often compared to the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo was supposed to a perfect number nine for the Blaugrana however, it just did not work out.
He played only one season with the Catalans and although he had a pretty good season, conflicts with Guardiola and Messi meant that he was on his way out the next season. He could have been a fantastic number nine for the team and he scored 22 goals in 46 appearances for the club however, his attitude problem along with problems with the manager, capped his career at Barcelona.
