Laporta Discusses Unsettling Departure of Dro as Barcelona President

Teenage Midfielder Transitions to PSG

The young midfielder is set to move to PSG after the club has agreed to fulfill the €6 million buyout clause in his contract with Barcelona.

Discussion on Future Prospects

Laporta commented on Sunday evening, stating, “We will address this matter once everything is finalized. He has indicated that he will not be remaining with us. This is a challenging situation, but we aim to resolve it similar to how it was initially discussed. His decision came as a surprise.”

Agreement on Future Terms

“We had reached an understanding regarding Dro’s situation when he turned 18, but unexpectedly, his agent informed us that we could not uphold our arrangement,” added Laporta.

Aiming for Positive Outcomes

Laporta further expressed, “We will strive to ensure this concludes in the most favorable manner for Barcelona.”

In the meantime, Barcelona is urging PSG to add an additional €2.5 million in bonuses related to Dro’s transfer to preserve amicable relations between the two clubs.
