  • Farré Presents a motion of censure against Bartomeu

Josep Maria Bartomeu, saw fit to be photographed with Francisco Trincao, a 20-year-old Portuguese footballer, formerly of Sporting de Braga, who has signed a contract for the next five seasons. What the president of Barcelona did not consider appropriate was to appear before the media . What difference does it make that a day before Leo Messi communicated to his club via burofax that he intends the immediate termination of his contract through a clause that the entity considers out of time. What difference does it make that a partner and candidate for the armchair, Jordi Farré, started the procedures to initiate a motion of censure first thing in the morning. Bartomeu preferred to send Ramon Planes to the lions. It was the new technical secretary, replacing his former superior, Eric Abidal, who set the club's public position.

"What we think has already been said by the coach, Ronald Koeman. And also by the president. We are thinking of a future with Messi. We want to build another winning cycle around the best player in the world and in history, " Planes started before the watchful eye of the young Trincao. Of course, adding also the same thing that had already been suspected in the management offices in recent days: "Barcelona has rebuilt itself many times, and it always comes back stronger. We are at that stage . "

He did not want to enter Plans in any detail. It was not up to him. Despite the fact that in the board there are already those who bet to find a negotiated solution that should go through obtaining some type of transfer for the sale of Messi, the technical secretary did not move from the official line. " What we want is for Leo to stay. You have to have enormous respect for him. His marriage to Barcelona has given a lot, and we must try to move him forward . For this we are working internally and we dedicate many hours to convince him. Now it is time to find the best solution for both Barça and Leo. "

Plans rejected that there would be any kind of dispute between managers before the resolution of the Messi case - "there is no division, whoever understands a bit of football wants to have Leo in his team" - and refused to turn the schism into a farce that is already such: "We cannot make this a public dispute between Messi and Barça. Neither of them deserves it."

The Argentine striker has no intention of wearing the Barça shirt again. Nor to go to the start of training, scheduled for next Monday.
