.In a recent series of statements, Víctor Font has raised serious concerns about the financial health of FC Barcelona, highlighting that the club’s debt has surged by an alarming 152 million euros since 2021. Font did not hold back, declaring, “Just like Bartomeu, the current Board of Directors is mortgaging the club’s future.” His remarks suggest that the financial decisions made in recent years could have long-term implications for the iconic club.

Font took particular aim at Barça Studios, labeling it a “fictional operation.” He emphasized that this perspective isn’t just his own; even the auditors have pointed out the questionable nature of this venture. His statements reflect a broader concern among fans and stakeholders regarding transparency in the club’s finances.

When discussing the legacies of former president Josep Maria Bartomeu and the current president Joan Laporta, Font stated, “We talk about Bartomeu’s legacy, but wait until you see Laporta’s. The reality is that we’re back to where we started in 2021.” This comparison underlines his belief that the club has not made any meaningful progress in resolving its financial woes.

Looking ahead, Font expressed skepticism about the future budget, asserting, “The budget for next season is even worse than the current one.” He acknowledged the reduction in the wage bill, a move that many would applaud. However, he cautioned that “there are young players with greater potential than what their salary and contract bonuses reflect,” suggesting that the club might not be fully capitalizing on its talent.

As FC Barcelona members prepare for an upcoming vote, Font encouraged them to “vote no,” emphasizing that this decision should not be seen as a personal attack on Laporta’s Board. Instead, he argued that it is essential for club members to protect themselves from being misled regarding the club’s finances.

Font’s call for action did not stop there. He stated, “I have never ruled out a vote of no confidence, but I am in favor of not compromising the club’s stability.” However, he also mentioned that the club is approaching “some red lines,” indicating a pressing need for change.

Finally, Font concluded with a call for advancing elections, asserting that such a move would ultimately benefit FC Barcelona. “That is what matters,” he stated firmly.

As these discussions unfold, the future of FC Barcelona hangs in the balance, with fans and stakeholders eagerly awaiting decisive action to safeguard the club’s legacy.
