One of ours: Hristo Stoichkov

The Bulgarian recalls his time at Barça and how he remembers 20 May each year

Hristo Stoichkov came to Barça from CSKA Sofia in 1988 for the first of two spells at the Club, separated by a year with Italian side Parma, before his departure in 1998. The Bulgarian confesses that every 20 May he follows a ritual in honour of FC Barcelona's first ever win in the European Cup. The Barça number 8 also recalls his excellent relationship with Johan Cruyff who he describes as playing an important role in helping win the European Footballer of the Year award.
