"According to a recent report from SPORT, Barcelona's elections are now pointing towards the month of March, with the final date expected to be confirmed very soon. The first board meeting of 2026 for FC Barcelona is scheduled for next week, on the 22nd, and it is during this meeting that the current board of directors could settle on the official election date. It is said that under club statutes, the presidential elections must be held between March 15 and June 15."
"At this stage, the most likely dates under consideration are March 15 or March 22. This is because Barça's statutes recommend that elections take place on a home match day at the Spotify Camp Nou, as this tends to boost member participation. Conveniently for the club, Barcelona are scheduled to play at home on both of those weekends. There are, however, some logistical doubts surrounding March 15."
Presidential elections at FC Barcelona must be held between March 15 and June 15. Joan Laporta prefers them completed early to avoid distractions while Hansi Flick's team remains in contention. The leading dates are March 15 or March 22, as statutes recommend holding elections on a home match day at the Spotify Camp Nou. March 15 has logistical doubts because the Champions League second leg follows and a league game might be required on March 14. March 22 looks cleaner, with a home fixture against Rayo Vallecano and an international break the next week. Once a date is announced, the formal call for elections and any resignations will follow.
