Today, Sunday, the eyes of FC Barcelona fans are turned towards the Spotify Camp Nou stadium, which is hosting an important event for the Catalan club, as the Barcelona presidential elections are being held to choose the president who will lead the club for the next five years.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Marca," the electoral race has reached its final stage after a full month of campaigning, with only two candidates competing for the position: the current president, Joan Laporta, and the candidate, Victor Font.

Laporta is considered the frontrunner in this election, especially after receiving nearly twice the number of supporting signatures for his candidacy compared to his rival Font. He also received public support from the young team star Lamine Yamal.

During the election campaign, Victor Font continuously criticized Laporta's management style, considering that the management model he follows has become outdated and relies heavily on the president himself. Font presented the elections as a direct referendum between two options: the continuation of Laporta or change.

Font is also trying to rally the votes of former candidates who could not get past the first stage of the elections, as he believes that the total signatures they obtained are almost equivalent to those collected by Laporta, which gives him hope in competing for victory.

On the other hand, Laporta believes that the signatures do not necessarily reflect the actual voting trends, pointing out that some of his supporters did not submit their signatures during the initial support phase because they thought his victory would be easy. However, he expects them to vote for him in large numbers in the elections.

Laporta also defended himself vigorously during the election campaign, accusing his opponent of engaging in what he described as unfair play by using the names of Xavi and Mateu Alemany against him, in addition to being behind a complaint filed against him by a club member.

According to the same source, Laporta also relied on the support he received from the team's coach, Hans Flick, in his election campaign, along with the endorsement of Lamine Yamal. The coach is expected to vote today before Barcelona's match against Sevilla, and it is likely that a number of team players who stand by him will support him.
