Before attending the Cruyff Foundation event, FC Barcelona president Laporta gave a short interview to the media. During the interview, he kept a smile on his face regarding Real Madrid's loss in the Champions League, but did not make any specific comments. When asked about the recent extremist controversy involving Atletico Madrid, Laporta appeared particularly agitated and quickly ended the "impromptu press conference".
During a walk around the La Municipal Sports Complex in La Marbella, Laporta had a friendly chat with fans and journalists. Facing calls from fans and media for more signings, he responded, "But we do have a great team." He emphasized that Barcelona already has a strong squad and does not need too many reinforcements.
When asked if the team is eager to win the Champions League again, Laporta said, "The task now is to work hard and win." He emphasized that the team needs to focus on the current game and win through hard work and teamwork rather than focusing too much on future glory.
In addition, Laporta was proud of the "good atmosphere" at the club. He mentioned that the new manager, Frick, has adapted well to the club's environment, as he studied Barcelona well before joining the club. Laporta also smiled and praised Frick's press conference performance: "He spoke very well in English and German."
