Barcelona Need The Legend Carles Puyol

The Barcelona Catalan club want to reuse its legendary power, Carles Puyol. Former Barcelona defender must become director of sports on Sunday (08/08/2019).

This was stated by Barcelona President Josep Maria Bartomeu. According to Bartomeu, Puyol's figure will be very useful for the club's future projects.

"We are discussing the return of Carles Puyol to the club." "Hopefully we can reach an agreement because he knows a lot about football and the club," Bartomeu said, as quoted by Marca.

"I want Carles Puyol back." "I want him to fill the vacant sporting director position, even if it doesn't need to be rushed to be filled," Bartomeu added.

According to Bartomeu, Puyol was absent from the football network for a long time and needed time to prepare. If Puyol wants to return to the Blaugrana, he will work with former colleagues such as Eric Abidal and Ramon Planes in the club's sports department.

"He has been out of football for a long time and he will now have more time to get ready," Bartomeu said.

During his career in football, the player who was born April 13, 1978 has won 26 titles, both at the club and the national team in Spain. Together with the Blaugrana, Puyol has presented six LaLiga titles, eight Spanish Super Cups, two Copa de Rey, two Club World Cups, three UEFA Cups, and three Champions League titles.
