Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo reports that the statue of Barcelona legend Ladislao Kubala, who played for Barcelona between 1950 and 1962, has been finished by sculptor Montserrat Garcia Rius.

In the coming days, the date of the unveiling of the statue, which wille be placed near the Camp Nou stadium, will be announced. The statue is financed by the fans (read more and donate here). For every euro paid by the fans, the club adds another one.

why not a trophy of cesar rodriguez alvarez or paulino alcantara, who scored more goals than kubala. paulino is actually the highest goalscorer in barcelonas history with something like 350 goals. any reason why barcelona doesnt recognise him as their highest goalscorer?

I great thing would be to do a statue of all long serving players and big players,Icons for the club when they retire.

Like Puyol,Xavi etc. OR then they die.

Why Kubala? Because he was the best Barca player in the 20th century. I am Hungarian, and so proud that one of my country has been such an idol. Forca Laszlo Kubala and Barca!!!

The outfit this statue is portraying is a bit feminine isn't it?
