Font expressed concern about what he called serious problems related to the registration of these players in LaLiga, which he believes reflect poorly on the club.
According to Font, the situation has tarnished the reputation of one of the most prestigious football clubs in the world.

Attack on Laporta
Font’s statement focused on the possible consequences of these events, especially the threat of losing a player like Dani Olmo, who was signed just four months ago for 55 million euros.
He noted that the uncertainty surrounding Olmo’s registration, as well as Victor’s, is the result of poor planning and lack of professionalism.
“The result is the possible loss of a player that we signed four months ago for 55 million euros and that we now see may leave due to management full of improvisation and an absolute lack of professionalism.
“We hope that the situation of the two players can be resolved, but we consider it intolerable that the top leader of Barça acts in this way and gives this image.

Questioning decisions
Font also raised specific questions about the club’s decision-making. He wants to know why the club proceeded to sign such a valuable player despite being aware of the financial limitations imposed by La Liga’s Fair Play rules.
“We want to know the reason for signing such a valuable player knowing that we were exceeding the rules of Fair Play if, as has been demonstrated, we did not have a plan to resolve the situation.
Furthermore, he questioned the club’s decision to take the matter to court, especially after court rulings indicated there was little chance of a positive outcome.
