It’s Barça in the meantime. Not because of Laporta, but because of Bartomeu. Almost a year after the change of presidency, the club continues to manage in the meantime because the slab of the past – especially in terms of payroll – is so huge that the new project cannot be started without continuing to mortgage the future. The reset it does not exist. Each operation to try to make the team more competitive requires real juggling. The famous fiscal engineering we criticized in the past. But with a difference. The previous board pulled financial trillionism to correct its own mistakes, while Mateu Alemany and Ferran Reverter do it to survive the terrible efforts of their predecessors. And for now, despite the mistakes, because they have been made, the two executives are getting away with it. Barça have a better squad than a month ago.

In addition, the accounting engineering that was used every summer to make up the numbers was mainly for economic reasons. Now, however, sports are the priority.
