Laporta touched on several transfer stories when speaking with Barca One.
“Jules Kounde has had an incredible season, he transmits strength to me, he goes to the gym after the games, Inigo (Martinez), Sergi Roberto… We rely on everyone, but it depends on the coach," he said.
"If he thinks adjustments need to be made, they will be made. There are players who are ending their contract, some who have asked us to leave, those on loan are coming back, like Ansu Fati, who has a tremendous desire to succeed according to what I read.
“Flick and Deco are deciding how the squad will look, the additions, the departures, the changes in physical preparation, rules in internal discipline, schedules at the Ciutat Esportiva… They will make the decisions, they will submit them to the board of directors and we will see. If they can be validated depending on this transition we are making towards economic peace of mind.”
He also said: “It is not necessary as of today. There is a breach of contract by one of the partners who were going to join (Libero), and if we solve it, it will give us the ability to spend without restrictions. There are deals in motion that are allowing us grow our sponsorship. That is why I value so much the trust and patience of the cules who value the sense of responsibility that we have. An effort has been made, an exercise in resistance, we have peace of mind, let’s not rush now.”
