From the UN to the Pitch: Actor Victor Solé Returns to Kosovo for Barça Camp

Actor Victor Solé returns to Kosovo for the Barça camp. Kosovo welcomed a familiar face: actor Victor Solé returned for a special occasion: the 20th anniversary of the official Barça supporters' club, which he founded during his time as a United Nations official.

A former UN development professional who worked in the region two decades ago, Solé returned to Kosovo to commemorate the supporters' club's bicentennial. The celebration coincided with a Barça football camp for local children, where Victor was the guest of honor.

The trip highlights Victor Solé's unique confluence of passions, connecting the worlds of acting, international development, and football. Just as a director shapes a narrative or a UN official works to build communities, Victor Solé's initial creation of the supporters' club was an act of fostering a shared identity. His return serves as a testament to the enduring power of sport to unite people and a reminder that building a team, whether on screen or on the field, is about passion, collaboration, and a shared vision.

To showcase the country's reality, Victor Solé recapped the trip to Kosovo on his YouTube channel, Victor Solé Acting Channel.
