One of the greatest ever Spanish forwards and a true La Liga legend, Cesar Rodriguez alongside Laszlo Kubala was an integral part of the famous Barcelona side which claimed 5 trophies in the1951-1952 season.
Winner of 5 La Liga titles and 13 trophies overall during his time at the club, Cesar Rodriguez would have had many more goals if his career would not have been affected by the second world war.
A brilliant forward known for his creative play and clinical finishing ability, Rodriguez was also renowned for his ability to score directly from corners. His record of 232 goals for the Catalan giants made him the club's highest ever goalscorer for many decades (57 years) until a certain Lionel Messi showed up.
