Turan visited the Hospital de Sant Joan de Déu along with Andrés Iniesta, Ter Stegen, Arda Turan, Vermaelen, Luis Suárez, Juan Carlos Unzué plus directors Silvio Elías, Pau Vilanova and Emili Rousaud.

Barcelona players and staff did the rounds at local hospitals delivering gifts and putting smiles on children that are currently away from their family.
