There are still several days left, but the classic against Madrid is already very present for the Barça environment. The protests for the sentence of the 'procés ', of course, will have a large dose of prominence, but that does not disturb the President Josep Maria Bartomeu in the least. "I am not worried about the actions of Tsunami Democràtic," he said in an interview with Catalunya Ràdio .

«I think that making a vindictive act during a football game in a civic and serene way is compatible. I see no problem in making the game and this peaceful act . In addition, the Barcelona partner already knows that he has freedom of expression, of movement, of putting up protest placards ... There are no restrictions, whoever he is. Without insulting, the partner may come to show his claim . The Camp Nou is a stadium in which we have always claimed peacefully, ”insisted the top leader of the Barcelona entity.

From his point of view, it would make no sense that the duel, scheduled for December 18, would finally remain in the pipeline. «I believe that in this case there is no reason to suspend the meeting . It's a classic, it's an important match. We are in an exceptional moment in the history of Catalonia and Barcelona has already expressed itself against things with which we disagree, ”Bartomeu said.

The president of Barça, of course, also spoke about the main protagonist of the week: Leo Messi . His idea, of course, is to expand once again the commitment of Argentine crack with the club. "We have talked many times and he has no problem to continue. He will end up playing here until he wants to, until he leaves. He has already said that his club is this one. We will make him as many contracts as he wants. Hopefully he can sign another as president," he said. .

His term ends in 2021, but he is sure that the Messi stage will reach beyond that date. "I do, but he has a long way to go. He will set the terms. He has age, veteran, the right to decide how and when he wants to finish. He will never leave the club, this is his club, the club of his life, "he stressed.
