Sporting director Jordi Cruyff to leave Barcelona after 2 years

Barcelona have confirmed that Jordi Cruyff will be leaving the club on June 30 through an official statement. A hierarchy change is expected to go through this summer as the club looks to rebuild internally. 

Their former player, Deco, is currently in talks to become the new sporting director. However, he will have to leave his agency, as he currently represents Raphinha. Negotiations with him have been confirmed by club president Joan Laporta, and it remains to be seen whether he will take over.

“FC Barcelona sporting director Jordi Cruyff will not be renewing his contract at the end of the current season due to his wish to embark on new professional endeavours. He announced his decision this Tuesday morning to president Joan Laporta at an emotional meeting in which he explained that after two years in his position, he is leaving to face new challenges,” the club statement read.

“Cruyff has said that he is committed to assisting the club in its transition towards a new executive structure, and will be offering his full support with the closure of outstanding operations in the summer transfer market.”

“He also most sincerely thanked the president for his trust and for offering him the chance to come to FC Barcelona two years ago. 

“FC Barcelona wishes to thank Jordi Cruyff for his important contributions as a member of the Sports Commission and wishes him all the very best of fortune in his future professional career.”

The future of former director Mateu Alemany also remains uncertain, with rumours that he has changed his mind after an official statement was put out.
