The winner of the presidential elections of the FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta, confronts to one of the most difficult situations of the recent history of the club. The Barcelona institution finds sumida in a grave crisis that has prejudiced to all field: sportive level, economic and institutional. The Barça needs to find again stability, and for this is menester pose a conclusive strategy to catapult to the group again to the peak.
In this order of ideas, the leader of Estimem the Barça defended his "experience" in the charge like a solid reason to resolve the situation of the club. This and his charisma were the keys to convince to the partners, widely convinced that the ex president was the best option. However, there is a reality that still concerns and is that it offered few details of his sportive project. Which, meant an arrival to the full presidency of incógnitas.
Laporta Bet by not offering names of signings neither executives for no desestabilizar to the team, this to sportive level. But, it is clear that the changing room needs changes. The new president has planned an important cleaning the next market of summer, with the aim to free mass salarial, and can aspire like this to a big signing. The big doubt recae in the attendant of this reconstruction. Until the moment, the performance of Ronald Koeman is convincing to Laporta, but the truth is that his permanence will define at the end of this summer, as they will evaluate the results. In case of not continuing, Xavi Hernández and Arteta have sounded to substitute to the Dutch.
His organisation chart to sportive level neither is of the all clear. For the moment, only it has confirmed that Mateu Alemany will be his director of football. Jordi Cruyff, possibly one to the project of Laporta in what it resolve his contractual situation with the Shenzhen Chinese, although, still desconoce if it will arrive to do charge of the technical office or the sportive direction. In this panorama, no descarta that Ramon Plans, current technical secretary, and Jose Mari Bakero, responsible of the yielded, continue forming part of the structure. This would leave went to Carles Puyol that would have an important role in the Fundació of the Barça.
Debt and Espai Barça
Another of the big interrogantes around his approaches is the bet by bonos to reduce the debt to a large extent in a short term. This was duramente criticised by his rivals, Toni Freixa and Víctor Font, that considered that sell active of the entity would be a highly risky bet. By his part, the ex president has defended that this would not comport in no case like "transmission of the property", and that the only risk would be "the money that it would be necessary to give back". Nevertheless, it does not leave to be a decision of risk in case of not obtaining income through the roads of finance.
Likewise, they exist also interrogantes important on his approach of the Espai Barça. The only that cleared is that it will carry out a due diligence to know with accuracy the state in which it finds the project. What expands the doubts around this subject. No descarta carry to the team two years to play to to Montjuïc, to advance with more rapidity the works, measure that has applied the Real Madrid. Said appearance, as it affirmed Laporta, will be decided by the partners through a referendum.
It is evident that the project of Laporta was not precisely the most flawless of the posed in these elections. There is still a lot of holes for covering with the step of the months. They are multiple the doubts that will have to go resolving satisfied sucedan the things. For the moment, it has the full confidence of the partners that chose it to take the necessary decisions to give back him to the club the joy that had lost during these years.
