    Does FC Barcelona conduct their business in Catalan or in Spanish? For example, what is the language spoken among the players and coaches?

    And does the majority of the population in Barcelona speak Spanish or Catalan or both, or what is the ratio? And if you attend a match at Camp Nou to watch the team... what are the majority of fans speaking?

    Thanks for any help.

    Barça conducts his business mostly in catalan but the most common language over the pitch must be spanish because it's the one more likely to be understood by everyone.

    I'd say that 80-90% of people living in Barcelona understand both languages. Half of them have spanish as a mother tongue and the other half have catalan.
