"I leave with pride and by statutory imperative. We leave with the pride that Barça is better than five years ago. We have made difficult decisions, but we are proud of the ones we have made, some have been painful, but they have always been to protect the club, Thanks to them, a fundamental stability has been maintained to save the club. If we had not made some decisions, the club would have collapsed, and this has not been the case."
"Also to push forward the Spotify Camp Nou, it was not easy given the moment in which the club was, but the strength of the shield is enormous. It is the most important heritage project in the history of the club, it is a reality and has allowed us to gain the credibility of investors, members, and the world of football,"
Joan Laporta officially resigned as Barcelona president under club rules ahead of the March 15 election and transferred responsibilities to Rafa Yuste. Laporta remains a candidate for the presidency and is widely viewed as the favourite, while Victor Font is emerging as a growing opponent. Laporta asserted pride in the board's achievements, saying Barcelona is better than five years ago and that difficult, sometimes painful, decisions were taken to protect the club. Laporta highlighted the Spotify Camp Nou renovation as a landmark heritage project that secured investor and member credibility despite financial strain and thanked his board for maintaining stability and preventing collapse.
