With forthcoming elections for the FC Barcelona presidency in the year 2026, Joan Laporta has thought of something big to bring back the eyeballs towards Barça as was in the glory days. This plan includes the inauguration of the new Spotify Camp Nou with full capacity and Project Espai Barça coming to reality and most importantly bringing a top class elite player.
While talking about elite players several news outlets reported that Erling Haaland is the dream of President Joan Laporta and in 2022 Xavi even met Erling Haaland in Múnich and Norwegian was also excited to wear Blaugrana but due to economic constraints the operation got quashed at that time.

And as you might know, Pep Guardiola's contract with Manchester City is ending 2025 and he is expected to leave which also creates the possibility for Haaland to leave the English club. For now it's just a dream, an idea but it is very but the club thinks it will be possible only in 2026 as Barça's financial situation is expected to be stable.
