Catalan sports weekly paper Gol claims that former Barcelona player and manager Carles "Charly" Rexach is considering to take part in the elections for president of FC Barcelona next year.
Rexach would recently have assisted a meeting organized by a group of Barcelona club members and important Catalan business people during which the latter tried to convince Rexach to run for president.
The 62-year old Catalan, who has mainly be working as a football pundit since he left the club in 2003, would be open for the idea but has reportedly asked for some more days to think about the proposal, to see how solid the project could be and to discuss things with his family and friends.
Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that the group of club members has already been meeting several times and that they want to propose a 'third way', besides the continuity candidate and Sandro Rosell.
The people behind the project would have clear ideas about the club model they want to propose and have the financial means needed. Rexach should head the candidacy but would nevertheless be hesitating to accept the offer.

Its tooooo late !!
ReplyDelete100% he will lose !!
those late runners will steal votes from others, certainly will not win !!
In 2003, Laporta was the last one to come out and he won, so I guess it's never too late if you have a solid project that can convince and attract voters, Romyan.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I think there's room for a third way (between the board candidate(s) on the one side and Rosell on the other) but it needs to be a solid project with a convincing leader.
i agree , but rexach does not look to have a solid project ..
ReplyDeletei mean , he is just thinking now will he run? what is his project? its not easy to win in that way in a very competitive elections
when laporta was elected , the club was in a bad situation so the society wanted anyone who can give hope , and he promised he will bring beckham .. those 2 things helped him a lot to win
it is different now , the club is in a very good situation , the big name is cesc and i don't think there is any more interesting player since cristina , kaka, and ibra are transfered last year
to win this time means you have to be prepared early .. i don't mean the announcement , but the preparations
The project would be in place, Romyan, as would be the money. The people behind would just be looking for a "face" for their candidacy and think Rexach could be their man.
