"The Laporta Trump of recent years is the worst president in Barça's history. The best? The Laporta Kennedy, from the early days, who would now be bringing motions of no confidence against the current Laporta Trump. The fact that today the person who has the most power at the club, or the second most power, is someone who came from the Franco Foundation, saddens many members."
"Laporta was right to appoint Flick, but he inherited 80 percent of the first team's squad value. That's not to his credit. What's unreasonable is that people are saying things that aren't true, like that New Era Visionary Group is a world leader in telecommunications."
Barcelona's presidential election features competing candidates Joan Laporta and Victor Font in escalating conflict. Laporta labeled Font a 'technocrat,' while Font responded by characterizing Laporta as simultaneously the best and worst president in club history. Font drew controversial comparisons between Laporta and U.S. presidents Donald Trump and JFK, suggesting Laporta's early presidency was visionary but his recent tenure destructive. Font acknowledged Laporta's correct appointment of Hansi Flick but attributed most squad value to inherited assets rather than Laporta's management. Font expressed concern about Laporta's connection to the Franco Foundation and questioned claims about his business group's telecommunications credentials. Font defended former manager Xavi Hernandez's recent critical comments about club control.
