On Monday, the president of Barcelona, Joan Laporta, resigned from his position in order to run for the Board of Directors in the elections that will be held on March 15. This action was necessary due to article 42.f of the club's Statute.

Along with Laporta, several other members also resigned from their positions with the aim of participating in the electoral process. Among them are the vice presidents of the institutional and social areas, Elena Fort and Rafael Escudero, as well as seven other board members.
