Jordi Cruyff says he is “on the sidelines of the Barça electoral process”

When the candidate Víctor Font announced this afternoon the name of Jordi Cruyff as general director of football for his sports project, already clarified that the son of Johan Cruyff would not actively participate in the electoral campaign, as he currently has a contract in force at another club, Chinese Shenzhen. However, Nor did Font expect Jordi Cruyff to react almost immediately to clarify Through his personal account on twitter that he wants to experience the electoral process of the Blaugrana club completely on the sidelines: “I would like to clarify that I am focused on my commitment to Shenzhen FC and on the sidelines of the electoral process for the Barça presidency.”

Evidently, Font's detractors will already try to elevate these words to the rank of denial, as they already did with Xavi Hernández's letter for Qatar 2022, but the truth is that Jordi Cruyff only limits himself to pointing out that he will not take an active part for any candidate, as Xavi himself announced in an interview in ‘El Periódico de Catalunya’, making it clear that it is about “An asset of the club” and that he did not want to be “proactive with any pre-candidacy.”

In any case, It seems clear that Víctor Font's candidacy is having some misalignment when announcing any of your project cornerstones, since both Xavi and Jordi Cuyff, despite the fact that in no case have they denied their active participation in the event that Font is the new president as of January 24, Yes, they have wanted to make it very clear that they were dissociated from any candidacy.
