Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu, whose tenure has
been undermined by tense relations with players this season, wants to reform
the club’s management because he distrusts certain directors, according to
vice-president Emili Rousaud.
“Bartomeu called me and told me he wanted to change the
management because he was suspicious of some of the directors, I included,”
Rousaud, who had been tipped to succeed Bartomeu as president, told Cadena Ser
radio on Wednesday.
“He told me things had been leaked to the press that upset
the players and he thought I had been critical of how the board had handled
it.” (Text and photo courtesy Punch)
