FC Barcelona has made the decision to suspend the recognition ceremony that was scheduled for its eight players who are world champions with the Spanish national team. This tribute was planned to take place prior to the league match between the azulgrana side and Athletic Club de Bilbao.<\/p>\n\n
The decision was communicated directly by the entity’s president, Joan Laporta, through the club’s official channels. The executive explained that, after analyzing the current situation, it was considered that the ideal conditions did not exist to carry out the event originally proposed by the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF).<\/p>\n\n
We have decided that the act of recognition for the Bar\u00e7a players who won the World Cup, which was proposed to us by the Royal Spanish Football Federation, will not take place because the context is not right, nor is it the most appropriate moment.<\/p>Joan Laporta, president of FC Barcelona<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n
This position of the club arises in a climate of high sensitivity following the events recorded last Sunday. During the match against Elche, an incident occurred between National Police officers and a Barcelona supporter, who was assaulted by the agents after having an estelada flag confiscated in the vicinity of the sports venue.<\/p>\n\n
With this measure, Barcelona seeks to avoid any type of additional controversy at a time when the atmosphere surrounding the institution remains under close media and social scrutiny.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
