Joan Laportapresident of the Baramet this Wednesday with the Senate Bara, a body of the Barça entity made up of the oldest members of the club. The first section of the meeting allowed the presence of the media and in it, the Barcelona leader touched on some of the current hot spots of the team.
The season
“It has been a good season in sports. The main objective has been achieved: winning LaLiga. This is, in large part, the merit of Xavi Hernández and his staff. Also of the players.”
“I highlight the work done by our sports director, Jordi Cruyff. We wish him the best in his new professional stage. I also highlight the work of the football director, mateu alemanywhich in extremely difficult conditions has managed to put a competitive team at the coach’s disposal, which has managed to win LaLiga”.
We have been working for weeks to strengthen the first team

“I also highlight the work done by the club. It has helped us to achieve our priority objective. But we want more. I am the first to want more. We are demanding and we lead the best club in the world. For weeks we have been working to strengthen the first team We want to aspire to everything next season. We want to have great chances of winning all the competitions. This is not easy because the legacy in sports wages is very high. We have been reducing it, but we have to do it more to be economically sustainable and be able to compete with guarantees of success”.
Viability plan
“I say this because there are some rules and because, despite our efforts, we have to continue. We will be able to register players that without the feasibility plan we would not have been able to. We have turned the situation around. We have overcome a situation of maximum difficulty”.
secret formula
“The secret of this is that there is a clear leadership in the club and that each one does their job. The players are fulfilling their obligation to help the commercial department of the club. The players play and fulfill commercial obligations. The technicians get the most out of performance, they train with maximum harmony with the sports management and the Football area. And as for the president and the board, they make decisions and direct the entity to where it has to go. That each one fulfills their role is important. It is fundamental to continue on the right path. One of the indications that we are on the right path is that the Spotify Camp Nou has registered the best attendance records. We are at an average of 83,000 people per game. Think that the maximum objective of this Meeting is that the culs connect with the team and celebrate their successes”.
Women’s Champions
“I don’t want to stop commenting that having won the Women’s Champions League is something incredible. We are very proud for having achieved excellence in women’s football. They have also done so by promoting the values of the entity. It is a pleasure to have this women’s team. How do they win and how they celebrate it. How they train and how they live the day to day of the club”.
Negreira case
“The Negreira case is a giant campaign to smear our club’s professional reputation. I repeat it. The FCB has never carried out any action to try to alter the competition or to achieve a sporting advantage in a competition. Having had arbitration technical advisory relationships with people with extensive experience in the world of football. It does not constitute a crime. What has happened is that this was done in a clear and transparent manner. With invoices, with concepts, with payments by bank transfer. All reflected in the club’s books. By less than 2003 to 2010, when I presided over the club. There has never been an objective to hide anything. The first person interested in having it investigated until the end is Bara. We are risking our image and our prestige. I will repeat it as many times as necessary” .
“All this has not been by chance. One of the reasons is that they saw that the Bara was beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. When this was done, it was done in a clear and transparent way.”
Espai Bara
“We are building one of the collective dreams of Barcelona fans. In two years the project has been redefined, costs have been resized. We have managed to create an award process for the Camp Nou works. The financing that will make it possible has been closed. And all this we have done with the premises that were clear:
– That it does not cost money to the members and subscribers of the club.
– That it does not put the sports management of the club at risk.
– Do not mortgage the club’s assets.
– That it reinforce our governance model, in which almost 150,000 members are the owners of the club”.

“These 20 investors have contributed more than 1,400 million euros. They are satisfactory conditions for the FCB. It has been achieved in a complicated environment, with a war that has increased costs. This gives great value to the work done. For many Whatever obstacles they have tried to put in our way, Bara has always come out on top and off to a good start. It seemed impossible”.
Moving to Montjuc
“We have to go to Montjuc for a year and a half to be able to have the best stadium in the world.”
“The club has made a great effort to give the best benefits to Barcelona fans who go to Llus Companys. We have done it so that this stadium is a space for Barcelona in all its splendor. We understood that we had to correspond to the members who want to go to that stadium with a readjustment of the season tickets. Lowering prices because we are finding new sources of income that compensate for the reduction that the change of stadium entails, with many fewer seats”.
