The 2015/16 A-League championship/premiership winning coach, along with José Mari Bakero, will lead Barcelona's youth set-up, Barça B and the U19A and U19B teams.

The 49-year-old Spaniard is a Barcelona legend having played more than 300 games for the Catalan outfit, winning five La Liga titles and a European Cup.

Amor opted to leave Adelaide United after an underwhelming second season in charge in 2016/17 where the side missed the finals, having won the double in 2015/16.

The former Spain international had moved to Adelaide in September 2014, taking up a role as United's technical director, before moving into the head coaching role after Josep Gombau's exit.
