Josep Maria Bartomeu has intention to resist as it is and to exhaust his mandate as president of the Ftbol Club Barcelona. That is to say, there should still be more than one year left before leaving the bar. However, the executives who accompany him, many of them aware of the erosion they may suffer if they intend to be part of the government team that leaves the next elections, try to get away from that end-of-course environment.

The crisis caused by the hiring by the Barca club of a consulting firm big data, I3 Ventures, which, according to the Cadena Ser, used six Facebook accounts in which football players were criticized for the current squad of the first team (Messi or Piqu), in addition to emblems such as Pep Guardiola or Xavi Hernndez or opponents like Vctor Font or Joan Laporta, has caused a great malaise in good part of the board members.

In the directive, even in the highest ranks, the concrete work of I3 Ventures is unknown, beyond the “monitoring” work admitted by Bartomeu himself. At the board meeting scheduled for Friday, several managers will ask for responsibilities -beyond the termination of the contract with the company-, especially the executives responsible for negotiating the terms of an agreement that, from the management team of Barcelona, ​​are plagued with shadows. Especially, for the high price paid in exchange for jobs that, according to industry sources, have little value.

The Chain Ser, specifically, explained that payments to the company of Carlos Ibez were made through six invoices that never exceeded 200,000 euros. Whenever a payment is less than that amount, the invoice does not have to go through the delegated commission on duty. Something that already extra one of the members of these commissions.

Assembly in March

They understand in the directive of Barcelona that the moment is most sensitive. Above all, because the Barça club plans to convene for the next month of March an extraordinary assembly of compromisers in which to submit to vote on the new financing of 'Espai Bara' after the construction costs soared. It is the crown jewel of the current government and the legacy with which Bartomeu dreams.

The distrust is also maximum in the dressing room of Barcelona. The president, who had to calm Leo Messi two weeks ago after Eric Abidal, the entity's technical secretary, accused the players of being responsible for the dismissal of Ernesto Valverde, had to go to the Tuesday afternoon Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper. There, Abidal was waiting for him, but also Guillermo Amor, director of institutional relations for the Barça club. Bartomeu, as he did a few hours before the media, announced to the four captains (Messi, Busquets, Piqu and Sergi Roberto) the termination of the contract with I3 Ventures and unlinked the club from all those account messages fake who, in addition to targeting members of the booth, came to mock the wife of Rosario forward, Antonella Roccuzzo.

The Rosario striker, who wants to continue in Barcelona despite the fact that this summer he is free to disconnect from the club, is tired of being involved in policies that do not compete.
