Núñez arrives in Catalonia at seven months old, the son of a humble customs officer posted to Portbou. From then on, he begins a social climb from the very bottom, with highlights, shadows, and conflicts with Catalan neighborhood society, which will lead him to become the owner of one of the country’s most important construction companies. But not to be sufficiently valued by the bourgeois society of the time, which considers him an intruder. He will then begin an even more ambitious project: becoming president of Barça. In the midst of an electoral campaign as muddy as few can remember, and despite opposition from the Convergent world, which would prefer a more Catalanist president, Núñez breaks with the tradition of passing around the porró and begins the path of his presidency, marked by one of the most important episodes in the recent history of Barcelonism: the Basel final.
