Joan Laporta

DonAK

President of FC Barcelona
According to one of the saudi journalists who sat down with Laporta in an informal talk during the super cup :

1- Laporta loves Arujo
2- when asked about Nico Williams, he answered " he is a madridista"
3- Laporta dream signing is Isaac

So that's a no to the Nico Williams question in the summer then :lol:

The guy really let his brother ruin the trajectory of his career.

How? Just curious

It was reported that Inaki and his family were the ones that convinced him to stay another year in Athletic so they go and win the Europa League together with the final at San Mames. At least journalists close to Athletic reported it. How Nico was told Barca would come for him this summer anyway.

Now Nico's having a down year compared to last year at least and probably loses out the chance to play for us. At least he got Arsenal though I guess.

Oh okay, yea that was dumb of him, he should have jumped at the chance to play with yamal after the euros.

I was saying I hope we had a great season just to rub it in a bit. It looks like they could be the case.

But I would be surprised if a Bilboa player is a madridista, Laporta is probably just salty he didn't make a bigger effort to come, but who knows.

Could be false. I mean…what kind of big brother would do that?

Whoever convinced him to stay, which I think was largely is family and the opportunity to win something with his home club which is total understand.

Definitely did him a disservice.

But again I can understand wanting to help your team win something, with him and sancet, they have two high potential players that could make it happen in the EL

But it's unlikely with Valverde as coach.

Off topic but I wonder where sancet will be 2 years from this, he's finally putting his potential together.

He could just play with Lamine in training, there is no way we would register Nico if he came and he knew that. A smart decision from him, better that he plays in Bilbao than be on the stands for a year here.
