Barcelona presidential candidate Víctor Font has encouraged the club’s supporters following comments he made over the potential signing of Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland.
The campaign has begun for the presidency at Barcelona ahead of the elections in March or April 2026, with Font the main opposition to current Blaugrana President and favorite for another term Joan Laporta.
During the launch of his campaign at the Fira de Barcelona, under the tagline “The Barça We Want,” Font was accompanied by legendary former Barcelona player and coach Xavi Hernández—who was appointed the club’s manager by Laporta in 2021.
Xavi’s appearance at the event, labeled a “turning point” in the election by Spanish outlet , has caused quite the stir, but Font’s remarks on signing Haaland have stolen headlines, too.
