Turan joined Barcelona from Atletico Madrid on a five-year deal over the summer and celebrated his 29th birthday with a 2-1 victory over his former side.

Barcelona won five trophies in 2015 including the La Liga, Spanish Cup, Champions League and World Club Cup.

Turan joined Barcelona over the summer but was unable to play until January due to a FIFA transfer ban imposed on the club that was only lifted at the start of the month.

Barcelona have however, won all eight games since the bearded winger made his debut with Turan provided two assists.

The reigning La Liga champions are now three points clear at the top of the table following their victory over second placed Atleti.
