The president of FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta, has responded harshly to the president of the League, Javier Tebas, who this morning reiterated once again that the Catalan team cannot sign Lewandowski due to their financial situation. "I would ask you with all due respect, to refrain from making statements about whether Barça can sign a player or not, because it is clearly harming the interests of FC Barcelona," Laporta said in a video posted on the social networks of the club.
The Barça leader reminded Tebas that “one of his functions is to look after the interests of the League and the football clubs”. "I don't know if he makes these statements voluntarily or involuntarily, but if he makes them voluntarily, it is a clear sign that he wants to harm the interests of FC Barcelona", he explained before adding that: "If he makes these statements involuntarily, it is a further proof of the verbal incontinence and this desire for protagonism that the president of the League has and that I think with all due respect that it does not correspond to him”.
Some harsh words that come after a new interference by the president of the League in the management of the Barça team. This morning, at an informative breakfast, he addressed the Catalan club, whose situation he has compared to that of Real Madrid: “He knows what he has to do, sell assets and earn more. He has had many accumulated losses in recent years, some avoidable, and he has to stock his pantry. Just as Madrid has filled it, Barça has it empty”.
