New Delhi: Football club Barcelona has nabbed Miss World 2013 winner Megan Young as its newest fan.
The 24-year-old, holding a Barcelona shirt proudly, was honoured by the club's president, Josep Maria Bartomeu, as she pledged her support to the La Liga giants.
Young, the first woman from the Philippines to win the illustrious Miss World title, was present to see Barcelona awarded the Variety Humanitarian Award 2013 for its efforts in the education of children.
'Since the last World Cup, I have made many Barça friends who make me watch games and explain things about football,' said Young to Barcelona TV.
