🎙️ Joan Laporta at the Barca Assembly via @QueThiJugues..

🗣️: "Together we saved Barça. What we inherited was very bad. The hole that was left was very big, but we have been covering it." #FCB
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "We come from a lack of governance and internal controls that caused the club to collapse. I can proudly announce that this October Spotify will launch its application in the Catalan."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "We have achieved the best budgets in history, with revenues of 1,255 million and profits of 274 million"
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "We define levers as operations that optimize our resources. Barça is alive and we have an enormous capacity to attract capital. We are aware that we cannot operate on the basis of levers alone."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "The financial situation of European clubs is very worrying. State clubs have unlimited resources and UEFA gives them power. That's why we support the super league."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "Soon we will have news and dialogue channels will be established. The super league will find solutions to the problems. The principles of solidarity and meritocracy are followed in the super league."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "The 667 million we achieved from the sale of television rights was not enough for the league. We had to sell 49% of Barça Studios. 24.5% to Socios and 24.5% to Orpheus Media."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "With 867 million from the levers, the League said it was not enough to register Koundé. The board endorsed 10 million to register Koundé. Mateu Alemany participated in this operation." 🇫🇷
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Laporta continues..

🗣️: "We saved Barça."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Eduard Romeu..

🗣️: "I stick with the sentence that there is a lot left to do. The message is clear to us. What we inherited was much more worse than we imagined."
@QueThiJugues 🎙️ Romeu continues..

🗣️: "I'm not just upset about what was done wrong. I'm upset about what wasn't done. They knew that Espai Barça has an impact at an economic and social level. If they had done their homework, this should have been a reality."

🎙️Martin Braithwaite via @sport..

🗣️: "It was something obvious, after my injury I wouldn't be counted on or I wouldn't get minutes with the team. I didn't really need to hear anything from anyone." 🇩🇰

🗣️: "It was just a natural thing, a tactical agreement that I had to look for something else. But I'm a positive person and I'm in a good position at Espanyol."
@sport 🎙️ Braithwaite continues..

🗣️: "I am very happy to be here. It has been a great start. It was the best project for me and they made me feel that they really loved me. At the same time, to continue in Barcelona and keep the family happy. It was the best package."
