Barcelona commercial chief Marc Ingla rates their new agreement with Nike as the most important contract in the club's history.

Barca agreed a new five-year contract extension with Nike through to 2013 and expect to earn a massive £100 million from the agreement.
"It's the best contract for Barca - if we evaluated it by the parameters of financial magnitude in the agreement," said Ingla.
"And still remains the fact that the most important company, Nike, is committed to promote world-wide our brand. That causes that the proposal with Nike is frankly unique for us.
"Also it is necessary to say that the agreement with Unicef is at the height of the one with Nike and is equal in importance."
