| Joan Laporta: “Was Cristiano Ronaldo offered before signing Lewa? Well, this type of story is all within the process of the summer window. But in the end the truth is we wanted Lewandowski. We have a very good relationship with Jorge Mendes.” [

| Joan Laporta: “Are you surprised Ronaldo can’t find a new club? Ronaldo is a very good professional and he’s still so fit. He’s a player who is very ambitious. His future is not my business. It’s the business of Manchester United and Cristiano.”
| Joan Laporta: “Is Bernardo Silva a possibility? He is a very good player. I have to respect, though, that he belongs to Man City. I have some friends there, like Pep, Tixi Bergstein and Khaldoon Al Mubarak.”
| Laporta: “Talks with Frenkie over a pay-cut? All we are doing with Frenkie is the same as the rest of the squad. The new signings have adjusted their salary to the new structure. But FdJ has a contract and we can’t force him to take a pay cut. It’s his decision.”
| Joan Laporta: “I can’t say anything categorically about Frenkie de Jong to Man Utd deal, but in principle, I can say that there is a strong possibility that he stays at Barça.”
| Joan Laporta: “Spending money on signings instead of paying deffered wages? When people form this view, they often don’t have enough information to make such statements. All our current players understand our situation perfectly.”
| Joan Laporta: “Was Frenkie offered to Chelsea? No, no. We had nice dinner with Toed Boehly in Barcelona and we talked about football in general.”
| Joan Laporta: "The Barça-Chelsea clash this window? We have a good relationship with Chelsea and Boehly is an amazing person. It just so happened that the players they wanted, we wanted them too. Those players wanted to come to Barça. Xavi was IMPORTANT."
| Joan Laporta: "Koundé wanted Barcelona because we have a consistent project with a coach he LIKES."
| Joan Laporta: "Azpilicueta and Alonso? They are both great footballers but out of respect for Chelsea and their owner, I would not like to talk about them since they are under contract."
| Joan Laporta: "Getting back to a positive economic balance been very hard. But my expertise is in managing chaos. It also happened in my first period as president and I succeeded and we had the most successful period of the club."
| Joan Laporta: "Dutch players' union chairman, Evgeniy Levchenko, accused you of extortion tactics? There is no extortion being used on Frenkie. I respect his opinion, but if talks between two parties counts as extortion then I think this guy is wrong." #fcblive
