Joan Laporta, ex president of the FC Barcelona and current candidate to the elections of the club that will celebrate the next 7 March, conceded an interview to the French newspaper L'Instrument in which it pronounced on the intentions of Paris Saint-Germain of fichar to Leo Messi to final of season. It is necessary to remember that Leonardo, the sportive director of the Parisians, recognised does some days that wish to bring to the Argentinian.
Given the circumstances, Joan Laporta answered with hardness to the Parisian club by this will. "With the owed respect, have to say that the behaviour of the PSG did not like me at all. They were missing him the respect to the Barça. Always I have followed closely the evolution of the PSG, now is a team in which it is necessary to trust the European panorama, but surprised me and disappointed", recognised the big favourite in the elections to the presidency.
For Joan Laporta, there is not problem in that a player like Neymar say that it wants to play with Leo Messi, but does not agree in that it do it Leonardo, that is the sportive director. "I listen to a player say that it wants to play with Leo Messi. To me also it would like me play with him! But when it says it a representative of the club, seems me inappropriate, shows his fault of experience to this level", commented.
"The PSG has been missing to the respect to the Barça"
Joan Laporta followed with his 'rajada' against the PSG by the statements on Leo Messi. "Still it remains them a lot for learning in the world of the football. I do not know if this reaction is instintiva or if it is an error of communication. On my part, always I have respected to other clubs. If we go in in this game, seems me that we are damaging the world of the football. The football is passion, there is rivalry, but here are speaking of a player that will play a party against this team", sentenced.
Besides, Joan Laporta considers that if Paris Saint-Germain index card to Leo Messi, will break the norms of the fair play financial established from does some seasons, by what thinks that the Argentinian will not finish in the Park of the Princes. "I do not know if they will be able to ficharlo. Perhaps yes, if they continue breaking the financial norms of the clean game... By what know, had significant losses the past year", ensured.
Anyway, Joan Laporta trusts that Paris Saint-Germain will be sanctioned by the pertinent organs if it breaks the norms for fichar to Leo Messi. "Would have curiosity for knowing if they will ignore the rules of the financial clean game for ficharlo. If this sucede, expect that the UEFA and the FIFA react with firmness and that the Court of Sportive Arbitration do not hesitate to the hour to issue his verdict", said.
Joan Laporta speaks on Neymar
On the other hand, Joan Laporta also was asked after Neymar, a player that has been related with the FC Barcelona during the last seasons but whose signing is unfeasible economically. "I do not speak of players of other teams. In the first place by respect to our team and to our trainer. Have our own group, that is very good, and have to support it", commented.
Joan Laporta, besides, explained that it always declines to speak on possible signings because, if it does it, elevates his price. "It would be absurd to say you that a player interests me because it would increase his price and would devaluate the value of which have in my team. And finally, by respect to other clubs. I criticised to Paris-Saint-Germain for doing it and do not go to yield to this type of childish reaction", concluded
