Calendar of FC Barcelona

Definitely, Joan Laporta marks difference between the rest. Already the barcelonismo knows it very well, in spite of the years that have passed after his first presidency. This Sunday was elect by the partners of the FC Barcelona like the new president of the club. It corroborated like this his marked favouritism, what has to it to him largely to his special personality: Direct, cunning, provocador, enjoys of a big self-esteem and is so charismatic like culé. The lawyer and employer is the president number 42 of the history, and is one of the barcelonistas more recognised and recognizable of all.

His reputation has won it to him to pulse, back it the more than 20 years that accumulates linked to the Catalan club, by this so marked personality that distinguishes it between all, by the successes that harvested under his mandate and the scandals that starred in his first stage at most regente of the Barcelona institution. The most glorious stage of the club was while he governed to the FC Barcelona. Laporta, is an idol of the barcelonismo, is all a character to the that owe him a lot.

One of the milestones that ensalzan to the employer is the have been the responsible maximum in the achievement of the historical sextete in 2009; besides, it went with Joan with the one who at all less than Lionel Messi signed his first agreement like professional, in 2005. Already it does 16 years when the lawyer, and ex politician, seated with the Argentinian star until by five occasions to tie up it and improve his conditions during the seven years that went president for the first time: from 2003 until 2010.

His mandate, ilusiona

No all was perfect in his go through the club. There were shadows stood out like his businesses with Uzbekistan, his excessive personalización of the entity or his gladdened private life. After falling in his attempt to return to the presidency in 2015, comicios that won Josep Maria Bartomeu, finally returned. It enjoyed of the long campaign, where showed that it keeps intact his capacity of oratory, his charisma and dowries of leadership.

One of the points that characterise it and that played in his favour is his character, denotes that it does not shiver him the pulse to plant him expensive to all that that interpose in his way. It is therefore that the partners see it like the saviour of a team and an institution that drift. The barcelonismo that entrusted to him so that rescue to the club, and attain like this the longed for continuity of Messi.

Laporta, that already aseveró that it will not move his political independentism personnel to the entity, already is again headed by the Barcelona institution. It seems that, to his 58 years, returned a so much more comedido. Although no a lot, the canvas of Santiago Bernabéu is proof of this. Now it writes a chapter more in the history of the FC Barcelona, and the lawyer is the attendant to produce it.
