Eduard Romeu, vice-president of the economic sector of FC Barcelona, ??spoke on various subjects which are the topicality of the Catalan club on Radio Marca. In particular, he praised Real Madrid’s financial management and praised the work of Florentino Perez.

Romeu also returned to the case of Lionel Messi, who he said was closely linked to the La Liga deal with CVC Capital Partners, which Barca rejected.

“In the end, Mr Tebas did the job for us on Messi. We had an inconvenience called Fair Play due to a legacy situation, but if we signed a document we could make a different interpretation. Ultimately this was not possible because it was something that could not be signed because it compromised the club's creditworthiness and it was a 50 year mortgage for an exorbitant price. The fund invests 2,000 million euros and turns them into 22,000 million euros.

For a club like Barcelona, ??that means a financial cost of over 13% and we have the option of financing ourselves for less than 2%. This operation was ruinous. We would have liked Messi to continue, but we could not accept him under these conditions. The club is above everyone else. The responsibility obviously lies with the club, but we inherited a catastrophic situation and here are the consequences. ", did he declare.
