Another controversy over Laporta
While the club is going through a critical moment, particularly on a sporting level, due to the positive results obtained so far in the League and the Champions League, but also on an institutional level after the important agreement with Nike, Laporta took advantage of this last break in the national team. President Culé packed his suitcase to cross Europe with two strategic stopovers in Mongolia and Azerbaijan wrapped in a private trip that feels anything but private. Although the club stated that it was only a “private trip”, the nature of the meetings seems to indicate a much greater objective linked to the Blaugrana entity.
