🚨 Rafa Yuste's Plan Keeps Barcelona Champions Until June 30!
👔 Rafa Yuste to remain Barça president until 30 June After Joan Laporta’s victory in the FC Barcelona presidential elections, the club has announced the Board of Directors that will preside over the club until Laporta’s inauguration on June 30, 2026. During these months, the current board will be led by Rafael Yuste as president and Josep Cubells as vice president. “This process seeks to ensure an orderly transition before the official handover,” the club explained in a statement.
Additionally, Francesc Pujol will lead basketball, Joan Solé will coordinate the sports sections (except for women’s football, which will be managed by Ángel Riudalbas), Josep-Ignasi Macià will remain in charge of the Social Area, and Alfons Castro will assume responsibility for treasury and budgetary control. In legal and executive terms, the outgoing Board retains the authority to represent the club before third-party organizations, sign binding contracts, and make strategic decisions. Although members of Laporta’s elected slate may be consulted or invited to meetings on occasion, their opinions will not be binding nor will they have decision-making power until they take office.
Laporta and the members of the elected board will attend sporting and institutional events only as guests, as protocol establishes that they may not perform representative functions or act on behalf of Barça without the supervision of the current board.
