And it is that Agustí Benedito and Antoni Freixa, two of the candidates that pugnaron with him by the presidency of the club during the elections of the summer of 2015, have celebrated the signature of the agreement with Rakuten, congratulating so much to Bartomeu as to Manel Brook, the vice-president of marketing and communication, as well as to the rest of the directive.

It calls the attention very positively the elegance of the two ex candidates to the hour to recognise the merit of the current board of the FC Barcelona, whereas it also surprises that Joan Laporta, the another candidate that struggled in 2015 by the presidency of the Barça, have been the only that has not congratulated to Josep Maria Bartomeu and company.
