Calendar of FC Barcelona

Éric Abidal put an end this week to his path like technical secretary of the FC Barcelona. In spite of having been ratified by the managerial board of Josep Maria Bartomeu, the ex footballer Frenchman took the decision to resign when being conscious of his errors in the charge, and when seeing already without the strength neither sufficient capacity as to improve the situation that crosses at present the club to sportive level.

The French renounced to his charge this past Tuesday, and few hours after confirming the news issued an open letter for the fans of the Barcelona club, published through his account of Instagram and written entirely in Catalan, in which it sacked of the barcelonistas and explained besides that the decision of not continuing was his, renouncing like this to the year of agreement that remained him.

In the writing, can read a part in which Abidal relate how has tried to change some appearances related with the staff of the first Barcelona team, but according to him same ensure has resulted him impossible. It will be a dart to the 'holy cows' of the club? Or to the directive of Josep Maria Bartomeu for vetoing in concrete moments some of his decisions?

The question is that Abidal had some that another rifirrafe with the captains culés by his statements, always constructive but some times misunderstood. Finally it has decided to resign when assuming his failures and not to feel able to help to trace back to the club.

The letter of Abidal

To continuation reproduce the whole letter of Abidal, directed to the barcelonismo:

"Estimated/ace Barcelonistas,

I want to take advantage of these lines to sack me of all you. I do it from the deepest gratitude for having been able to share two important stages of my life. One like player and another like manager of the Technical Office of the FC Barcelona. This second farewell contemplates 2 years in which I have tried to work to do a Barça better. Two intense seasons that have given by finalised by own decision. Although the Managerial Board ratified me the Monday in my charge, the past Tuesday presented my resignation.

In the last two years have tried to make changes that believed very important for the future of the first team. In spite of my convencimiento and my insistence have not achieved it. That's why I think that it has arrived the moment to put an end to my links with the club. I want to leave proof that I have renounced to the year of agreement that still had with the FC Barcelona.

Today the situation of the club is complicated, but do not have any doubt that wish of all heart that can surpass and that the successes go back prompt as it deserves this big club.

Thank you Eternal to all.

Visca The Barça and Visca Catalonia.

Eric Abidal".
