Report: Arsenal stars at FC Barcelona.. 11 experiences between success and failure

Arsenal are one of the most prominent clubs from which FC Barcelona has recruited players during this century, with the number of players joining the Catalan team from the English club reaching 11 after the signing of Brazilian Gabriel Jesus.

The experiences of these players have shown a significant disparity between success and failure, with the number of unsuccessful trials surpassing those that left a clear mark.

Marc Overmars was one of the first names, but he failed to meet expectations as he suffered from injuries, alongside the pressures associated with his transfer fee, especially since he was brought in to replace Luis Figo during a difficult period for FC Barcelona.

Emanuel Petit has not made the expected impact, and his negative comments about FC Barcelona have led to his signing being viewed as an unsuccessful experiment.

In contrast, Giovani van Bronckhorst has succeeded in delivering performances that have exceeded expectations after joining FC Barcelona on a free transfer and playing as a left-back.

Thierry Henry is considered one of the most successful players on this list, having proven himself a world-class star at FC Barcelona, even though Lionel Messi's brilliance overshadowed some of the spotlight.

Alexander Hleb impressed Pep Guardiola during his time in London, but he was unable to replicate that level at FC Barcelona.

As for Cesc Fàbregas, he has returned to the club where he grew up, but he has not felt comfortable in the position he occupied, and FC Barcelona has not been able to fully benefit from his potential.

Alex Song's experience at FC Barcelona was not successful, after Tito Vilanova insisted on signing him. The player later admitted that he preferred sitting on the bench to avoid problems.

Thomas Vermaelen joined FC Barcelona as a defender capable of delivering immediate performance, but he struggled with injuries and spent a long time away from the pitch, making his experience another one among the unsuccessful signings.

Despite his short time at FC Barcelona, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang made a notable impact, scoring 13 goals in 27 matches and helping the team out of a difficult situation.

Héctor Bellerín, who also progressed through the La Masia academy, did not stay long at FC Barcelona, and his experience was disappointing.

Gabriel Jesus has become the 11th player to move from Arsenal to FC Barcelona this century, marking the start of a new experience that the Catalan club hopes will be different from some previous ones.

Jesus hopes to follow in the footsteps of Henry, Aubameyang, and Van Bronckhorst, who performed well with FC Barcelona, and avoid the fate of Betis, Song, and Vermaelen, who did not leave a regular mark.
