Random: Puyol's New Chica, Ibra Almost Here & Barca's Personal Chef

- As it turns out, the chica vacationing with Puyol is none other than Romanian model Claudia Neghina (photo) - more pictures of them together here.

- The deal with Inter Milan for the signing of Ibrahimovic and departure of Eto'o is almost complete. Reportedly, the two clubs have reached an agreement and the only step that remains is the paperwork. Barca's offical site reports that Ibra will arrive in Barcelona today and take his physical tomorrow, and possibly be presented tomorrow evening as well.

- Barca's Henrique gave an interview following his arrival in Barcelona - we love the way he gives his answer, the kid's got beauty and brains. Yes, we're crushing on him right now...

- The pitch renovation on Camp Nou is almost complete. The new grass is ready and is currently going through the neccessary irrigation process for it to set properly, before the field lines will be painted in the coming days. The new pitch will be premiered on August 19, when Barca faces Manchester City for the Gamper Cup.

- Barca's personal chef Leonardo Ortega is following the team on their preseason tour, overseeing the food that is prepared for our players in collaboration with the medical team, to make sure that their diet is not altered. He is the one who prepares their meals in Barcelona, and the club wants to make sure that when travelling they eat the same as they do at Camp Nou. Read more here.
