Font spoke about a number of issues surrounding his campaign

Víctor Font, one of the candidates to be the next FC Barcelona president, explained some of the aspects of his electoral campaign in a virtual event with the club's fans on Monday. 

From the off, he said that he didn't want to name names of people who will be involved in his campaign: "In the coming days we will give names (involved in) the project," he said before being questioned.

"Jordi Cruyff is one of Xavi's dreams for the sporting director role," Font said. "We are convinced by him." 

Another name that came up was former Barça defender Carles Puyol, who Font feels deserves an honorary position at the club if not something more concrete.

"I will do everything possible so that talent like Puyol returns to the club," he added. "He should be involved with Barça during the coming years." 

Font also explained that "Joan Vilà and Albert Benaiges are part of the structure we have in mind for the academy."
