🎙️| Eduard Romeu (Economic Vice-President of Barcelona) in an interview with @sport

🗣️: "Barça's solution is to recover the model that it should never have abandoned." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu on all the worrying figures that Reverter presented last week

🗣️: "The imbalance of the club. In an ordinary company, this would mean bankruptcy. Fortunately, we have the confidence to reverse the situation with a business plan approved by an auditor. " #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu on expected actions against Bartomeu's board of directors

🗣️: "I don't know. At the moment we have the results, they will be transferred to the club's legal department, which will determine if there has been any illegal activity, or if it's bad management." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu on Espai Barça project

🗣️: "I am very calm in view of the Assembly. All members have the same goal: Espai Barça is an ambitious project that we will enjoy for the next 100 years. We have to do it well and, above all, we cannot put the club at risk." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu continues

🗣️: "That is why the entity will not be responsible for anything if things do not go well. In addition to not losing money, you will generate additional income." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu on how long Barcelona will need to wait before competing in the transfer market for players like Mbappe/Haaland

🗣️: "We won't be able to sign the best players in the world for two years." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu continues

🗣️: "Now we have other priorities: lower wages and bring them to market price. This is the handicap that we have compared to the other clubs." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu continues

🗣️: "It is very important that Barça recover the model that it should never have abandoned, with La Masia as the backbone of the team and the stars as accessories." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu if Barcelona will use Ansu Fati as a marketing figure with Messi gone

🗣️: "Yes, although I don't want to focus only on Ansu Fati. We have a great group of young players with DNA and Barça style. You have to be patient with all of them." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu continues

🗣️: "In addition, it would be very healthy if there was a wider range and that not everything focused on a footballer as happened with Leo Messi. We have many assets with commercial appeal and we cannot focus on one." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu if Barça made a mistake 'linking' so much to Messi on a commercial level?

🗣️: "We must not forget that the Barça brand is the most valued in the world at a sporting level. And this is said by 'Forbes' magazine, I am not saying it." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu continues

🗣️: " I would love to have Leo, but I have to value the club's brand. The best players in the world have passed through here. The economic 'Messidependencia', in addition, would have ended sooner or later." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu if Barcelona feels Leo's departure financially

🗣️: "What we know is what we save. Knowing what we have stopped entering is more complicated. At the moment, we have not noticed the consequences in the negotiations of sponsorship contracts." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu if it's possible for Barça to earn more than €55m per year for the sponsorship of the shirt

🗣️: "€55-€60m is fair value at this time. It seems little to me, even without Messi. We have already shown investors that the Barça brand is very powerful." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu on Barcelona's relationship with Nike

🗣️: "We are talking. Like any relationship, there are moments of more and less difficulty. Between conciliatory people who like to negotiate there can be no problems." #FCB

@sport 🎙️| Eduard Romeu on changing Barcelona's shirt manufacturer

🗣️: "Everything can be valued. We are open to maximizing income wherever it comes from, but obviously we always give priority to those who have accompanied us so far." #FCB
