Records and Statistics FC Barcelona

Xavi presently holds the team record for number of total games played (629) and the record number of La Liga appearances (414), surpassing the previous record holder Migueli (391).
FC Barcelona's all-time highest goalscorer in all competitions (including friendlies) is Paulino Alcántara with 369 goals. The all-time highest goalscorer for Barcelona in all official competitions, excluding friendlies, is Lionel Messi with 253 goals. He is also the record goalscorer for Barcelona in European and international club competitions. The record league scorer is César Rodríguez, who scored 192 goals in La Liga between 1942 and 1955. Only four people have managed to score over 100 league goals at Barcelona: César Rodríguez (192), Lionel Messi (169), Ladislao Kubala (131) and Samuel Eto'o (108) .


On 2 February 2009, Barcelona reached a total of 5,000 La Liga goals. The goal was converted by Messi in a game against Racing Santander, which Barça won 2–1. On 18 December 2009 Barcelona beat Estudiantes 2–1 to win their sixth title in a year and became the first ever football team to complete the sextuple.


Barcelona's highest home attendance was 120,000, for a European Cup quarter-final against Juventus on 3 March 1986. The modernisation of Camp Nou during the 1990s and the introduction of all-seater stands means the record will not be broken for the foreseeable future as the current capacity of the stadium is 99,354.
