"With this experience we will have a structure that does not exist right now. Font proposed replacing the single sporting director position with a trio of experienced executives to create a more professional organizational framework that would better support coach Hansi Flick's work at the club."
"Flick is delighted here and has a contract. We're working on a structure that provides him with what he asks for - stability and signings. Font emphasized the importance of providing the coach with organizational stability and the resources needed to strengthen the squad competitively."
"We have a top-level squad that can compete for everything. We've had a fairly favourable Champions League draw. I'm sure those in the know can see there are positions that need strengthening. Font argued the current squad possesses quality to compete for all trophies while acknowledging specific areas requiring reinforcement."
FC Barcelona's presidential candidates Joan Laporta and Víctor Font engaged in their first face-to-face electoral debate ahead of the March 15 elections. The debate centered on contrasting visions for the club's sporting structure, with particular focus on three key figures: Deco, Hansi Flick, and Lamine Yamal. Font advocated for professionalizing the sporting structure by replacing the single sporting director role with a trio of experienced executives: Carles Planchart, Albert Puig, and Francesc Cos. Font argued this structure would provide Flick with greater stability and organizational support. He emphasized Flick's satisfaction at the club and stressed the importance of long-term sporting planning and strategic signings to maintain competitiveness across all competitions.
