Laporta declares war against the enemies of Barça!
Barcelona seems to be going through some very complicated times. Its president has decided to strike a revolt.
In recent months, Barça has been going through a very turbulent period. Having inherited the catastrophic balance sheet from the Bartomeu team, the Catalan club is facing new problems. Report Foot Mercato.
We learned from the Spanish press that the courts had canceled Gavi’s contract with the first team. But that may not be the most important thing.
Above all, the Blaugranas have to deal with the Negreira scandal, a case in which former leaders are suspected of having paid a little over €6 million to José Maria Enriquez Negreira, the former vice-chairman of the arbitration technical committee of the RFEF (Spanish federation).
A media storm that the current leader of the Culers, Joan Laporta, briefly reacted to yesterday on his Twitter account. But on Monday, the Catalan leader took advantage of a meeting with the captains of the different sections of the club to set the record straight.
“I look forward to confronting all the villains that tarnish our image. Barça is a club with values. We use the word values, not to do well, but because values are a fundamental part of our model of athletic excellence. That’s why Barça is admired and recognized around the world. Sometimes, jealousy motivated, people try to erode our reputation with disingenuous campaigns. Barcelonista sentiment cannot be bought or sold, but it does not get dirty either,” he said, in remarks reported by Mundo Deportivo before concluding.
“There have been fierce attacks lately to smear our emblem that have nothing to do with reality. And you can be sure that the board of directors that I have the honor to chair will defend it with all its might. They will not succeed, because the captains of Barça represent our values and our feelings, and you prove it on the ground when you give your all to the last drop of your blood. Don’t think I’m getting carried away out of weakness, I’m getting carried away because I really want to confront all the villains that dirty our coat of arms. That no one thinks it’s because of weakness.” Up the Laporta.
