These are the same presidents who signed a letter thanking the Dutchman for the unparalleled legacy he left behind at FC Barcelona. The letter, made public on Thursday, 24 March, said, "The arrival of Cruyff altered the history of Barça. He contributed decisively to a change of mentality. He got us to keep our heads up and to see that no opponent was invincible; that we could attain what we were aiming for. Cruyff was an icon who explained, better than anyone, that Barça is more than a club. He did it simply and based in reality, and always moving forward."
