Barça’s Bold Bet: Laporta Speaks Arabic on La Liga Ambitions

Laporta's Arabic Message: Barça’s La Liga Ambition

Barcelona president Joan Laporta expressed confidence in his players to deliver their best and to compete for all titles this season, speaking ahead of Globe Soccer and on Abu Dhabi Sports.

He said the team will strive to compete for every competition we enter, with the aim of playing well and winning.

He added that he trusts the players to give their best after last season’s achievements, and that the club will move forward step by step while delivering beautiful football.

When asked if he was saddened by Barcelona's absence from the Club World Cup and the potential prestige impact, Laporta replied that the sadness was about prestige rather than money, and that they hope to participate in future editions.

He continued: We are working to develop players from La Masia, with many talents, and we are proud of our philosophy; we also want to recruit more players.

He added that every La Masia graduate understands the value of playing for the first team.

Finally, when asked if Barcelona will win La Liga this season, Laporta answered in Arabic: Inshallah (God willing).

Punchline time: Barca’s game plan is so precise that even their shadows look offside. And if they actually win the league, the trophy might need a passport because it’s about to go on tour.
