🚨 Laporta and Font in the running to lead Barça, Ciria misses out

The elections for the presidency of FC Barcelona will be a duel between two. After the validation of signatures, the Electoral Board of FC Barcelona officially announced the presidential candidates for the upcoming elections.

In the end, only former president Joan Laporta and the leader of the Nosaltres candidacy, Victor Font, will take part in the blaugrana elections.

Both candidates secured the necessary support to run on March 15, unlike Marc Ciria. The third contender in the race for the presidency submitted 2,844 signatures on Monday but did not reach the 2,337 valid ones required to run.

Laporta submitted 8,169 signatures on Monday (7,226 valid), while the leader of 'Nosaltres' handed in a total of 5,144 (4,440 approved).

The next step in the electoral process will be the start of the campaign for both candidates tomorrow, Friday, during a period that will last until March 13. The elections will take place two days later.
