‘All decisions are for the good of Barcelona’ - Joan Laporta speaks out after Xavi is axed

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has spoken a few words about the current situation at the club with Xavi set to leave after Sunday’s game against Sevilla.

Laporta has been in Bilbao with Barca Femeni and was spotted in tears at the final whistle as the team secured the quadruple and retained their Champions League crown.

The Barca president then joined the players to celebrate the victory and offered a few words after taking the microphone to address all those present.

“Being president of Barça is very difficult,” he said as part of a brief speech.
