Crisis in the management team of Joan Laporta, the elected president of FC Barcelona, who will not be able to take office until he has presented the guarantee of 126 million euros before the Professional Football League. Endorsement that is scheduled to become effective this Monday in the offices of the club with which he managed to be champion of absolutely everything, in his previous stage.

However, it has been possible to confirm the news advanced by the newspaper ARA: this afternoon Jaume Giró, who had to be the economic vice president of the new board of directors, has resigned from his position. In the absence of official confirmation from the stakeholders and protagonists, it seems that Jaume Giró and Joan Laporta have maintained serious discrepancies regarding the future economic management and the crisis that the club is experiencing.

Sources close to Cule´s candidacy have commented that Giró did not agree that all control of economic decisions fell on the back of the next CEO of FC Barcelona, Ferran Reverter, signed by MediaMarktSaturn Retail Group. Laporta, for his part, understood that among the attributions of a manager were not those of interfering in the work of the top executive of the entity.

Undoubtedly, these news reignite the alerts in a Barcelona that has been battered for a long time with its leaders. To top it all, he was left out of the Champions League against Paris Saint Germain, and is close to losing his greatest figure in history: Lionel Messi. Without a doubt, they will have to accommodate all these issues as soon as possible, if they want to return to the forefront of the continent.
