Víctor Font, former candidate for the presidency of FC Barcelona, has spoken out about the reasons why opposition groups are calling for the resignation of the club’s current president, Joan Laporta.
Font believes that the situation is serious and urgent. He highlighted the recent events involving players such as Dani Olmo, Pau Víctor and Thomas Heurtel, which he sees as clear examples of the mismanagement suffered by the club.
“I think the cases of Dani Olmo, Pau Víctor and Heurtel are the latest flagrant examples of the inability to manage an institution like Barça.” he told TV3.
According to Font, these problems demonstrate the inability of Laporta’s administration to effectively manage FC Barcelona, which he considers a major problem.
Calling for Laporta’s resignation
Font is firm in his conviction that the only solution to the club’s current crisis is for Laporta to resign.
He maintains that this is essential to modernize and professionalize Barcelona, which he believes has the potential to achieve much more under better leadership.
“It is very important, urgent that Laporta steps aside, it is the only way we can professionalize the club, modernize it and face all the potential we have.”

One of Font’s main concerns is that the current board has shown a “inability to face the challenges we have, but above all, to take advantage of the potential, which is brutally enormous.”
Barcelona should not depend on external matters
He insists that Barcelona need to do things better than other clubs, making sure not to depend on external factors such as La Liga president Javier Tebas, the Spanish Sports Council (CSD) or the courts.
Font’s message is clear: depending on external influences will only put the club at risk of missing opportunities. He maintains that Barcelona should not be in a position where its future is controlled by third parties.
“Barça has to do things better than anyone else so as not to have to depend on anyone, we don’t want to depend on Tebas, or the CSD, or any judge. Because if we depend on third parties we already know that we have the possibility of losing.”
Opposition groups within the club have united around this cause, calling for Laporta’s immediate resignation.
They want to usher in a new era of management, with new approaches and more efficient decision-making to guide Barcelona into the future.
