jordi cruyff has reviewed the Barça news during the inauguration this Wednesday of the Cruyff Court Constantí, an artificial turf soccer field so that the boys and girls of the town of Tarragona can enjoy a space to practice this sport.
Real Madrid
“When you’ve already had a few qualifying rounds in a row like this, it’s not luck. In the end it’s a quality that you have to believe, character, mentality, not giving up… you also have to have a little luck, that the ball enters you or it comes out. But when it’s something repetitive, it’s a quality, it’s not luck anymore.”
Haaland
“The president has already answered, so in the end there is no need to answer. He has already said it.”
Laporta, to a boy who asked him for signings: “Not Haaland, crack”
De Jong
“They ask me about him because there is some criticism or doubt and I said that he is a highly valued player within the club and in the world of football and this is not the time to talk about this type of thing. We are in the middle of something that is above everyone, each one of us. We have to meet the minimum objectives and we are fighting for it”.

Seven signings
“More than numbers, what we have to do is see some concepts that have to be modernized. Football is changing and we have to be open to those changes. The one that doesn’t advance, stays behind. It’s important to be clear about it. These months we’ve had a great streak, although these last few weeks have been a little more difficult. It is important to analyze, have good communication. Until we know what we can do, we have to do plan A, B, C and be prepared”.
Renewals: Gavi and Dembélé
“These weeks we will know if they have a good finish or not. Araujo was also an issue that had been worked on for a long time and we want to have the same success with other players. It is a negotiation, there are two who want to see if it is achieved”.
Xavi? Trust and patience go together
Xavi
“Confidence and patience go together. One thing doesn’t take away from the other. We’ve had a tremendous run. We have to remember not only a month ago, but look at December, that we were seventh, eighth, ninth… and then we got excited about the possibility of fighting for the title. We have to stay with that, not only with the disappointments of recent weeks. Now we have to meet objectives and then work with the coach. We have to modernize concepts, football has changed, the rhythm , the needs to compete… you have to prepare to be in the good mood”.
Xavi, Koeman-style: “This is our reality”
titles
“It depends on what we can do in the market and strengthen ourselves. When we are clear about fair play. The important thing is to try to balance the squad, in all lines. At Barça sometimes they forget that for a crack to work there are others who they work well. We have to ensure that the coach has a headache every weekend because he has to leave players out”.

Names
“I’m not talking about names because they only bother you and make the price more expensive.”
Lewandowski? Dreaming is free, but players are not
¿Haaland?
“I neither confirm nor rule out. I’m more into the template.”
Lewandowski
“I’m not talking about names. He has a contract. Dreaming is free, but not the players.”
