It is an image that I keep in mind very often. Not so much because his style was impressive, which was impressive!, to the same extent as his subsequent disappearance (for life) without saying anything, in silence, without denouncing, perhaps, what he had seen, verified and/or heard, for That is why I always keep in mind the prestigious accountant Ferran Reverter, the Barcelona CEOwhich, in theory, should add credibility to the second ‘Laporta project’.
Reverter appears to me in a dream, wandering around the stage telling, from ‘pe’ to ‘pa’ (well, now we know that it wasn’t completely like that or, at least, he didn’t tell everything), the atrocities he had starred in Josep Maria Bartomeu and his board at the head of Barça.
I say that I remember it because that performance and his detailed ‘PowerPoint’ (well, not entirely, he hid something, right?) were overwhelming and called into question Bartomeu’s management. Someone will say, and it is true, that nothing new in the Barça world, since the previous management of Joan Laporta It was already the result of analysis and audits, which they discovered, do you remember? that they had spent 362,000 euros on private jets without much justification, on pizzas or something similar at ‘Rostisseria Lolita’, in San Cugat, about 24.50 euros and 125 euros at ‘La Tabaqueria’……even an invoice for a chicken shop
No one saw the bills
I mean, the latest directives, right? Or don’t you also have that feeling? They have spent their lives hiring those people and companies with bombastic names that, they say, find out everything for you, give you the report, do not report you, no matter what, well, they work for you, you pay them and do with that material whatever you want. Sometimes, just nothing; or cover it all
That is to say that dozens and dozens, well, a lot, of audits, ‘forensics’ and ‘due diligences’ have been a fraud (or almost), because nobody realized that Barça, its presidents, its directives, its accountants They were paying thousands and thousands of euros to the arbitration organization, sorry, to its vice president and, although there were dozens and dozens of (monthly) invoices of 45,000 euros, no one was surprised. Or, even worse, if it caught their attention, they hid it. It would be fine with them, I say. And necessary. The scam, I mean.
And, later, it turns out that those same people, that is, Barça, to simplify, do dare to send a letter to the Dutchman frenkie dejong, one of its stars, to ask him to cancel his renewal contract, signed in 2020, and return to 2019 “because the new contract has clear evidence of criminality & rdquor ;. And what they wanted, let’s say it one more time, was to get him off their backs.
And it is that, after so many audits, ‘forensics’ and ‘due diligences’, we discovered that the only thing that had indications of criminality and / or irregularity was De Jong’s new contract. Are we serious?

For this reason, I’m sorry, until I hear him explain why he ran out of there, fleeing, I will continue dreaming of the undaunted image of Ferran Reverter, walking proudly, uptight, clever, intelligent, ‘a la Steve Jobs’denouncing Bartomeu’s waste and not saying a word about the payment to the arbitration vice president.
P.S. I forgot: that yes, they were very shrewd to find the payments to some related journalists, they say, to Bartomeu. They did find that and commented on it, of course. He was of knobs to them.
