Joan Laporta won re-election as Barcelona president in a landslide and immediately signalled that Lionel Messi will always have a place at the club. He said the former captain deserves both a tribute match and a statue at Spotify Camp Nou. Laporta defeated Victor Font with a strong majority of member votes, securing another term to oversee Barcelona’s next phase. After the result, he said Messi can remain linked to the club in any role he wishes and stressed that the club’s doors will always stay open to him.

Barcelona’s plan to reopen Spotify Camp Nou at reduced capacity against Real Sociedad has been blocked by the City Council over safety concerns. Renovations remain incomplete, with deficiencies in evacuation routes, signage, and accessibility preventing licensing approval. Joan Laporta and Elena Fort expected clearance, but Deputy Mayor Laia Bonet stressed fan safety must come first. Officials say the issues can be resolved quickly, but Barca must continue hosting fixtures away from their iconic home for now.
