The debate within Barcelona Football Club has intensified regarding the club's economic model, as Joan Laporta and his rival presidential candidate Victor Font exchanged criticisms during a discussion about the future of the Catalan club's financial management, with the presidential elections approaching.

Font criticized the current management harshly, asserting that the club has suffered from poor economic management in recent years, noting that the sale of some of the club's assets did not achieve the expected benefits. He added that his project relies on institutional management led by specialists in economics and management to ensure more stable financial decisions.

Font also revealed an economic plan aimed at raising the club's revenue to about one billion six hundred and fifty million euros in the coming years and achieving profits after a period of losses. He pointed out that the current management caused significant losses and sold parts of the club's assets to companies he described as having an unclear reputation.

In response, Laporta strongly refuted these accusations, considering Font's statements to have malicious intent, and denied personally benefiting from the club. He affirmed that his administration succeeded in rescuing Barcelona from a complex financial crisis, emphasizing that the project to renovate Camp Nou and develop income sources are the foundation of the club's economic future.
