Gerardo Martino took over as head coach just weeks before the start of the season following Tito Vilanova’s shock resignation.

The partnership lasted just one season as Martino failed to deliver the big trophies to Barca.

The Spanish giants won just one silverware that year, and that was the Supercopa.

2014-15 season

Luis Enrique replaced Martino to be the club’s next head coach, and that decision immediately paid dividends for Barcelona.

They clinched their second continental treble in 2015, winning the UEFA Champions League, La Liga, and the Copa del Rey, per Bleacher Report.

2015-16 season

Barcelona clinched a domestic double during this campaign, winning the Copa del Rey and La Liga.

They narrowly defeated Real Madrid by one point to win the Spanish league title. They then captured the Copa del Rey with a 2-0 victory over Sevilla.

They also won the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup that season. Barcelona secured their place in those competitions after winning the Champions League in 2015.
