🗣 “Maradona's death? I felt bad, very bad. When I found out, I thought it was a lie, like other times, but since I saw that a lot of people were saying it, I asked someone close and he answered that it was true."
🗣 "Wondering what I needed to win the Ballon d'Or? I thought about it, and one day I asked Leo. He told me that to have a firm chance to win the Ballon d'Or, I had to win the Champions League and he is right."
🗣 "Any Problems with Guardiola? No, never. I never argued with him. We did have to clarify things. When he arrived, as we didn't know each other, we had a bit of a trial run. The last three years have been fantastic at City."
🗣 "When (Gabriel) Jesús arrived, he was instantly a starter. I had to keep working hard. Jesús was injured in the match against Bournemouth, and there were no strikers, so I had to play. In those three months, I scored 20 goals. I gave Pep the confidence he needed."
🗣 "Any regrets on having signed for Barça? No. Let's be honest. What player does not want to be at Barça? I would tell you that most players would like to wear this shirt, no matter how good or bad Barça is."
🗣 "Am I a starter? You can only consider yourself a starter when you do things well and help the team win, and that's what I think about doing. In helping the team with a goal every time I have to play. Beyond the changes that happened, among them is the departure of Leo."
🗣 “Messi's departure? When I heard the news, I couldn't believe it. That Saturday I went to see him at his house, and, because of my personality, I saw he was struggling, I tried to make him forget what had happened. I was telling him about my E-Sports team."

🎙️| Josep Bartomeu (Former Barcelona president) in an interview with @mundodeportivo
🗣️: "Bad management? I know it is a phrase that runs but it has been very serious and responsible, rigorous, with a project and a strategic plan that was set especially in 2015." #FCB
🗣️: "We are the board that has been most active but as of March 2020, that serious and rigorous management was truncated by the appearance of the pandemic, which drastically decreased revenues." #FCB
🗣️: "It has not been disastrous. I am not saying it. LaLiga says it, UEFA in its Financial Fair Play and the auditors. There have been benefits of about €185m. "Forbes" said that in 2020 the club was the most valuable club in the world."

🗣️: "At a structural level we have improved a lot, we have been able to spend the short-term debt long with a credit operation that the assembly of delegates approved and that we improved the expected terms." #FCB
