Calendar of FC Barcelona

The next day 24 January will celebrate the elections to the presidency of the FC Barcelona​ and, to day of today, the precandidatos follow looking for signatures of the partners that allow them turn into candidates of right plenary. However, the rise of the curve of contagions by Covid-19 back to the holidays navideñas could put in risk the celebration of the comicios in said date.

Josep Maria Argimon, Secretari of Salut Public of the Government of Catalonia, pronounced on the next elections to the presidency of the FC Barcelona in reference to the current situation of the pandemia of coronavirus Catalan earths. "Vote to the president of the FC Barcelona no if it is a fundamental right. That the Barça needs a president, this yes, but is not a fundamental right", commented.

The elections to the presidency of the FC Barcelona will be in hardly two weeks and, in this sense, Josep Maria Argimon wanted to be wary on his celebration. "This carries it the PROCICAT and the general office of the Departament of Salut and have not seen the papers of how think to organise the elections", commented the Secretari of Salut Public of the Government of Catalonia.

With the elections to the presidency of the FC Barcelona waiting, from the Generalitat are not too optimistic on a possible mejoría in the weeks to come.

The elections of the FC Barcelona, with clear favourites

In spite of that there is multiple precandidatos to the presidency of the FC Barcelona that in these moments find collecting signatures to be able to turn into candidates of right plenary, does not seem that all they go to be able to reach the necessary supports to be able to present to the elections. In fact, only Joan Laporta and Víctor Font seems that they go in in the good way to obtain them.

The one who went president between 2003 and 2010, Joan Laporta, is the big favourite to win the elections according to all the surveys, whereas Víctor Font is the second with clarity, although still far of the ex maximum mandator culé. To two weeks so that they take place the elections to the presidency, other precandidatos like Jordi Farré, Toni Freixa, Emili Rousaud, Agustí Benedito, Lluís Fernández Allah or Xavi Vilajoana follow looking for signatures.
