Sandro Rosell declares himself the best Barcelona president in history

Sandro Rosell has declared himself the best Barcelona president in history.

Rosell also admits he's not in contact with current Barca president Joan Laporta.

He said: "Regarding the achievement of championships, Núñez is first, Bartomeu is second, Laporta is third and I am fourth. This is in terms of absolute numbers.

"But if we talk about the relative number of championships compared to the years, because Núñez, for example, lasted 23 years: the first place, in all humility, is me, the second is Bartomeu, the third is Laporta, the fourth is Núñez."

Rosell, on Laporta, also told Al-Mayadeen: "The last time I saw him was when he took office, since then I have not seen or spoken to him. He is busy and so am I. His management of the club is no longer what it was.

"Since I have no accurate information, I don't know. There is not much financial information about the club. All I know are the players who are participating right now because I see the games as well as the signings and sales."
