"When the things do not go well speaks a lot and say things that are not truth. The model of the Barça is the one to play well to the football, the one to have players of quality and level, that is the model that to me loves me", explained the ex mediocentro of the Barça to 'DAZN' in the previous of the duel in front of the Celtic. With this, the Barcelona director resolves the controversy on his presumptive differences with Joan Laporta on the model to be followed for the next season.

"I grew seeing the Barça of the years 90 and from boy dreamed with playing this club. There is not discussion. They are foolishnesses that say , but already am accustomed", added the sportive director culé. The past Sunday, the magazine 'Luz' of the newspaper 'Nascer do Sol' lit the controversy to the descontextualizar some statements of Deco in which, further to criticise the model culé, the ex international luso left in clear the need to find an ideal replacement for Xavi.

The confidence of Deco in Vitor Roque follows intact

On the adaptation of 'Tigrinho', Deco recalcó his confidence in the Brazilian, to the one who considers an important piece of face to the final stretch of the 2023/24.
