Pep Guardiola may have left Barcelona for pastures new, but the club will always remain part of his heart.

The Spanish manager was spotted in the stands with Johann Cruyff's wife before the game started.

Widely considered as Barcelona's greatest manager, Guardiola was no slouch as a player either. As noted by the club's website, he played 479 games for the side and scored 16 goals.

He won six league titles as a player, four Spanish Super Cups, two Copa Del Rey trophies, two European Super Cups, and one European Cup.

Guardiola scouting Real Madrid?

Guardiola's presence at Camp Nou may have been twofold. The former Barcelona manager could have also been there scouting Carlo Ancelotti's Madrid ahead of a potential clash.

Manchester City have been drawn against Bayern Munich in the quarter-final of the Champions League. The winner of that game will face the winner of Real Madrid and Chelsea in the semi-final of the competition.
