It is not about him not thinking Torres is worth 55m it is reported as him disagreeing with club spending money like that in January while Laporta thinking club/fans needed a lift through a transfer.

Xavi Torrres claiming the issue is the future structure of club as fan owned.

Reverter wants it to be like Bayern and 51% fan owned and other 49% private investment while Laporta wants it 100% fan owned.

The idea being from Reverter Barca are not a club of this time and stuck in past and how can they be worth billions and have cash flow issues.

Wait for it... Reverter will appear at next election running for President with this issue at core of Laporta v Reverter.

Last bit made up by me not included in Torres claims..

The club needs an union, we no longer need some power fight at top. Hope these things are left in past.

If that's the case, that Reverter is going to go the SAD route to generate income then I am 100% with Laporta on this one.

Come to think of it, the rumor that surfaced a couple of weeks ago saying Reveter was working with Real Madrid to study selling 49% of the club to investors could be true, if the above claim from Xavi Torres is true.

Laporta's first big stumble

The resignation of Barca CEO Ferran Reverter is very bad news for the club. Now that Xavi's team has sent the first positive and forceful message to the grass, it seems that the institutional sphere is shattering. No one is essential but some people are harder to replace. Reverter's departure is bad news for what he feeds. It is scary that an executive of his profile, who was endorsed by a professional reputation of 19 years in the multinational MediaMarkt – the last as CEO – has had enough with seven months at Bar?a to let it go. Nineteen years of loyalty and professional career in a company against seven months. What has Reverter seen that makes him so drastic, so soon?

And it is also very bad news that the chief executive folds when – as we know – aspects of his negotiation have not been closed as the financing of Espai Bar?a – changing the interlocutor in the middle of negotiation does not help – and when the feasibility plan he has designed to place the club in black numbers in four years has barely been put on foot.

That the stumble does not end in embargo depends, in the first place, on the protagonists being explained without euphemisms or half-truths that are fuel of speculation. The demand for transparent information is reinforced by the current moment, when part of the club's guts have been made available to the prosecutor's office. And, of course, avoiding an embargo will also depend on the professional category and personality of Reverter's replacement.

While both sides think about what communication they make (or if they do), it is worth paying attention to what explains Reverter's closest environment: there have been differences in judgment with Laporta and sponsorship with Spotify has been the drop that has precipitated the vessel of resignation, consumption and previous attempts to sign up. It is a shame, because the very positive impression that Reverter's arrival made since his first intervention – in terms of didactics and communication – has been subsequently corroborated in the economic and financial reconduction of a club that had entered a disproportionate situation that put him at vital risk.

Reiterating that no one is irreplaceable and that no one is above a collective, that the chief executive is folded after such a brief period causes alarm in barcelonaism. One of the symptoms that Bartomeu's management was going through the stoning was the cascading resignations in his directive. So far Laporta has folded an element as sensitive as the chief executive. No more, but no less.

Two ways of doing

The news was unexpected, but not entirely surprising. Ferran Reverter, the lauded CEO of FC Barcelona, a Messi of the offices, as he had also been called, leaves office. He will not do so imminently, but the goodbye will occur once the club has found a replacement for him. In its statement, the club justifies the resignation by arguing for personal and family reasons, but behind the decision there is a underlying problem that has been stinging for some time and goes far beyond wanting to devote time to family and other projects, which also, because, of offers, it has and will have one.

In fact, Reverter had been meditating for some time as Bar?a's chief executive. And so he had passed it on to some people, who had convinced him not to do so and stayed at the club to finish the job that meant straightening an economy practically to ruin. He had been in Miami last week seeking funding for The Bar?a Space and had also been involved in negotiations over the sponsorship deal with Spotify, which is due to be made official shortly. Indeed, last-minute changes to this contract, which must guarantee €280 million over three years at Barca, have been the trigger for his departure. Reverter felt it was a mistake for Spotify to monopolize sponsorships, because it will have the first men's, women's and training team shirts, as well as the camp Nou's commercial naming rights. He was in favour of diversifying and thus being able to obtain a better economic performance. And upon returning from Miami, it was found that some conditions had changed.

The discrepancies, however, did not end there. He did not share the management model of the Laporta club or some of the decisions that had been made regarding hiring in the executive area, especially because they were people close to the president, such as Manana Giorgadze, chief of staff; his daughter, Paloma Mikadze, and his partner, and others of some managers such as Holger Bittner, from the commercial area and close to Rafa Yuste, and Bryan Bachner, in the Hong Kong office and close to Joan Oliver. Reverter, in addition, was always against the CVC agreement and was a strong defender of the Super League project. The executive understood that his steering committee had to play a very important role in all the strategic decisions of the club.

But there was also a very significant underlying discrepancy. Reverter believes That Barca's ownership model should look much more like Bayern Munich's, with a greater business presence, and questioned the full ownership of the partners. And this is a red line for Laporta, who does not want to hear about changing fc Barcelona's ownership model. It's negotiable.

Reverter's departure is amicable rather than traumatic, and some reports even indicate that he could continue to advise the board on some issues from now on. Signed in March but incorporated in the summer as a replacement for Oscar Grau, during these months he has done a scary job, which has been recognized by the executive and by the employees. It has achieved debt refinancing with the short-term passage, has obtained liquidity to be able to pay and not have cash strains, cut expenses that were skyrocketing, negotiated sponsorships and practically closed the financing of the club's most important project in the coming years, Espai Bar?a.
