Joaquim Peris de Vargas (1880 – February 7, 1959) was a former President of FC Barcelona. He was one of the most controversial Presidents in the history of FC Barcelona. He began his career as manager in 1910 as he occupied the vice presidency, a position he held under various presidents. Taking advantage of Pay Àlvar resignation in September 1914, Vargas Peris assumed leadership of FC Barcelona.[1] His time in charge at the club was marked by constant controversy. Vargas was famous for his quote: "I am Barcelona." He left the organization at the request of the general assembly of FC Barcelona and he was forced to resign at the end of the season 1914–15.
