LaLiga: “I am convinced that we can win it. What’s more, we are going to win it! And I argue it in a simple way: in the last stretch of the season we have come very strong, with the team working at full capacity, with a coach who has clear ideas and it makes us play our genuine style of football, we have recovered our essence and we have to go with optimism and determination to go for LaLiga. It will not be easy, it is evident that it is a great challenge, but I see it as feasible. win against Sevilla and see what Real Madrid does in Vigo because these games are not easy. We don’t want to offend anyone and we respect our rivals. But we are very clear that to aspire to LaLiga we have to win everything”.

Xavi: “My best decision since I became president has been to incorporate him as a coach. It is clear that I should have made it before, but everything is more complex than people think.”

Haaland: “I am very clear that I put the institution above the players, coaches, directors and executives. We are not going to make incorporations that alter our salary system. We want to maximize the team over individualities. I am not going to give any name because it would raise the price and do Barça a disservice”.

Dembele: “Ousmane knows that we love him. In fact, I have a good relationship with him. It is clear that Xavi has been able to find the point and the player has started to function. We are proud of him. Ousmane feels supported and valued. Dembélé ends his contract, but I know that he is comfortable at Barça. In addition, the arrival of Aubameyang has made him happy. But I insist, there are salary levels. We will not have any problem talking to his agent when it arises”.

Johan Cruyff: “Everything that is happening at Barcelona is thanks to him. He taught us to be brave. He opted for a style that has been admired and loved by everyone.”

Pique: “Because of quality, I’m sure he could return to the national team. He’s having an extraordinary season, he’s a mainstay for us. He looks strong and committed. He’s one of the heroes of Barcelona and he also gives the team a lot of drive. Having him is a privilege . An outgoing guy.”

It is on its way to making history, great talents and great people. Humble, hard-working and authentic. We want reinforce the women’s football project. The social significance it has also comes in handy. It was a day that marks history for the club”.

Red numbers: “The objective is to have the economy healthy as of 2023/24. In our strategic plan, that period is indicated to turn around a disastrous legacy that we have found. We come from an astronomical debt and very high losses. This is not ago in two days, but the truth is that we are seeing the light of the tunnel. The brand is powerful, it falls in love and we are lucky”.

Spotify: “It is the best sponsorship agreement that Barcelona has signed in its history. I was very proud of the agreement in my first Unicef ​​mandate and now we are going to sign with a universal brand that shares our values ​​and that supports music and culture I hope that the partner ratifies it because it is a great contract and it comes at a very good time that helps us to clean up the economy”.

CVC: “It is one of the levers we have to reverse the situation. I know that LaLiga and CVC have improved our initial approach. We don’t need more debt, we need income. We are working conceptually to make it so. We are working on two more levers to reverse the economic situation”.

Superliga: “Keep going. We are promoting the project together with Florentino Pérez, with whom I speak often. It is a way to save European football. It is evident that we must fit it into the framework of European football and without destroying the state leagues. They are fundamental for us. But it is clear that it would be the most attractive competition in the world. And we cannot allow European football to be in the hands of states that do not belong to the European Union. We repeat it ad nauseam in the forums where we are. Clubs like the Real Madrid, Barça and Juve see very little collaboration from UEFA. But it is clear that City and PSG have a money-making machine, and we are fighting for that. Not only the three clubs that I am mentioning but others that are silent, but from behind they give us their support. Perhaps we have been the most courageous in this regard”.
