Presidential candidate vows to 'call Lionel Messi first' if elected Barcelona president | Barca Universal
""We wanted the elections to be held as soon as possible, but we also wanted the chosen date to guarantee maximum participation. "From a competitive standpoint, we don't like it, but we are ready to go for this opportunity. If there is a game that day, we ask that all seats at Spotify Camp Nou be made available to members,""
""These are not elections to choose one person or another. "It is time to choose between the outdated, personalistic, and presidentialist model, which drives away talent and labels you a bad Barça fan if you disagree, and what we represent: the opposite model of collectives, which attracts talent and plans with rigor and transparency. "The time has come for Barça to stop depending on one person. These elections are about choosing between Laporta and Barça.""
Víctor Font promised his first act as Barcelona president would be to call Lionel Messi. He intensified his campaign ahead of the March 15 presidential elections while questioning the timing confirmed by the club board. Font said he wanted elections held as soon as possible but also desired a date that guarantees maximum participation. He requested that if a game falls on election day all seats at Spotify Camp Nou be made available to members. He framed the vote as a choice between an outdated, personalistic, presidentialist model and a collective model that attracts talent, plans with rigor, and operates with transparency. He acknowledged the positive atmosphere on the pitch under Hansi Flick but warned that the club's off-field situation is worrying.
