On October 1, more than two million people, or 90 percent of those who cast a ballot, voted "Yes" to Catalonia breaking away from Spain.
On Friday, the Catalan parliament declared independence, leaving the region's future hanging in the air. As developments unfold, FC Barcelona faces the possibility of an exit from La Liga, Spain's national football league.
The team currently sits top of the league rankings and has won 24 La Liga titles. The club's president, Josep Maria Bartomeu, has said during Barcelona's annual general meeting that the club wants to stay in La Liga.
"We will never put the club nor its presence in any competition at risk. That's why, to all the socios (members), I say that we want to continue playing in La Liga and, as of today, our participation [in La Liga] is guaranteed," he said according to Reuters.
