Calendar of FC Barcelona

Josep Maria Bartomeu, current president of the FC Barcelona, medita, in these moments, the arguments against and in favour to present the resignation and not expecting to that efectue the referendum of the vote of censorship. It is not the first time that the idea to leave the charge him round by the head, after confirming that 'Més that a Moció' had collected more than 20.000 signatures, also was ready, but, finally, threw backwards.

The true is that, Bartomeu, always has pretended to finish his mandate and sack of the direction with the numbers of the past campaign and the budget for the following closed. Objectively, can that that was the best option for the board that take the reins of the club after his exit, but the precipitation of the events could force it has to do it what before.

It does some weeks, already advanced the date of the elections to the presidency to the month of March of 2021, just after it burst the 'case Messi', with the famous burofax, warning of his wish to leave the team in the past market of traspasos. But now, this does not seem sufficient, and could pose the dimisió, especially, by two reasons.

The first is the ending of the period of signings. Of better or worse way, the entity blaugrana already has finished to make the staff with which pretend to win all the titles that compete, one of the aims of the President was to close the high and the drops. The second reason is the fact that, if the motion of censorship goes on, the partner could have to vote until in two occasions; and taking into account the context Covid-19 that live, could not being necessary.

The pressure of the Managerial Board

The image of the current Managerial Board has remained very damaged by the last events occurred. As it informed the newspaper 'Sport', does some dates, orn group of directors of the club would be presionando to Bartomeu to present his resignation. The more than 20.000 signatures that collected in his against have been a bathroom of reality for more than one.

It seems that the answer of the President to his directors was that they had to hold until March. The reason is the following: to prosper the motion of censorship and obtain 66.6% of the support, the club would remain, of immediate form, in hands of a Managing Board, with a power of decision limited. Besides, as we already have mentioned, it does not consider that it was the best stage for the next term of office.
