Víctor Font will be one of the next candidates for the FC Barcelona elections and he is already outlining his project for the Barcelona club. The Catalan assured in an interview that the figure of Xavi Hernández will be key in his candidacy

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Víctor Font, that will be presidential candidate of the FC Barcelona, explained in a colloquium how will be the bases of his project for the group barcelonista. The Catalan ensured that it carries a lot of years working in this and that knows perfectly what wants for the club. It referred to the politics of signings that pretends to do; to Xavi Hernández, to the that many plant like next trainer of the Barça; or to his model of management.

The first that wanted to leave clear is that it carries a lot of preparing his candidature and that will follow working to be able to arrive the readiest possible to the elections of 2021."We carry seven years, from 2013, working in this transversal project to transform the model of management of the club. We do not have absolutely to anybody behind, alone talent barcelonista. The first was to form a team and present a plan of action. This is what are doing with 'Himself to the Futur'", said.

Regarding how it will be his idea for his managerial board and his model of management, Font cleared that it will not have at all that see with the current of Josep Maria Bartomeu. To the current president have accused him to do of the Barça a too presidential club, something that the one of Granollers will not do, since it will trust professional. "Ours is not a presidential project, is a transversal model and of team. There will be an ex player of big experience in our board. We do not want managerial that take part in the day in day out and yes to the best executives in each area or sector", specified.

After confirming that it wants to have an ex footballer of level in his board and with the best professionals in each sector, the Catalan desveló that his idea is to have Xavi Hernández like big baza electoral. Both have a big relation and took for granted that it would bet by him like technician, but his words have confirmed it of the everything. "Xavi is the 'pal of paller' of the sportive project of the Barça for the next ten years. We work with the idea that he was our trainer", desveló.

Stick to Neymar and good words for Lautaro

Besides, it did not show too excited with the possibility that Neymar Jrcan return to the Barça this summer. The candidate launched a dart to the Brazilian and stood out more to his mate in the forward Kylian Mbappé. "I am more than Mbappé that of Neymar. This is more creative, but the French seems me more centred in the football", commented, leaving clear that the paulista is used to to be more slope of other less professional appearances.

On Lautaro Martínez himself spoke well, but did not want to say if it ficharía for the Barcelona. Font relegó The decision in Xavi, that will be the man by which happen all the sportive project barcelonista. The current trainer of the To the Sadd said recently in an interview that what looks for is precisely this, by what all stable. "It loved me when Lautar wine to the Camp Nou with the Inter, but the decisions of fichar to a player or another would take them Xavi and all the sportive structure", cleared.

Finally, the one of Granollers wanted to defend the presence of players of the Masia in the staff and criticised the signing of Junior Firpo. The candidate would have bet before by Marc Cucurella, that stood out in the Eibar, but that did not have any opportunity to triumph in the Barcelona. Another of the points of the project of Font seems that it will be to go back to give him to the quarry the importance of antaño. "It is necessary to defend the talent that there is home" recognised in the colloquium in which it spoke.
