Deco contradicts Xavi again: “Nothing has been agreed upon”

It was not an easy issue to face but Deco knew perfectly well that he would have to do it . The last minute changes in Barça’s squad to face Antwerp on the last day of the group stage focused the last hours of Barça news because it has been interpreted that there has been interference from Joan Laporta when choosing the players. summoned. Lewandowski, Gündogan and Araujo were not on the official list on Monday and on Tuesday morning the club reported that they would finally travel.

Xavi assured that the changes had been agreed upon with the president and Deco for a logistical issue because the team will sleep tonight in Belgium and they did not want the players to spend so many days training alone. But at night, a report from Rac1 assured that it was Laporta who urged the changes.

It was up to Deco to give explanations but he threw the ball around and didn’t clarify the matter too much. “It was decided that everyone would travel and whether Lewandowski plays is up to the coach. The calls are up to the coach, but nothing has been agreed upon with him. Through effort management this has been decided, we are all fine, there is no need to worry. In football there is news every day and what we have to do is win because there are always things to prove,” he said.

The Portuguese executive also did not want to get wet about a possible rival in the round of 16 . “A rival in the round of 16? Living from the future or the past is not important, you have to add up the points, all the games are important at Barça. It was bad for us to lose against Girona, we are digesting it and the best way to do it is to win today.”
