Joan Laporte and Pep Guardiola after a title - SIPA

Bring the Pep home. This is the essence of the presidential program of Joan Laporta, the former boss of Barça between 2003 and 2010 and determined to return to the power of the house of blaugrana. In an interview with TV3, Laporta announced his candidacy for the current president Bartomeu for the elections next year, and therefore his desire to make Guardiola the pillar of this new project. Without seemingly having already established contacts with the one he launched on the bench, more than ten years ago.

"I would love Guardiola to come back, but he's in Manchester City and coming back will be his decision," said Laporta. Many Catalans would like him to coach Barça again. At the right time, I will speak to the person who we think should be a Barça coach from 2021. "
