Las Palmas surprised host Barcelona by beating them 2-1 in the match that brought them together yesterday, Saturday, in the 15th round of the Spanish League.<\/p>\n
The loss left Barcelona with 34 points at the top of the Spanish League table, 4 points ahead of their rival Real Madrid, with two matches remaining for the Madrid team. If Real Madrid wins those matches, it will overtake the Catalan team.<\/p>\n
According to information from the Catalan newspaper “Sport”, the loss to Las Palmas cast a shadow over the Catalan team, whose president, Joan Laporta, has begun to feel the need to make decisive decisions before the situation worsens and the team’s season collapses.<\/p>\n
The newspaper added that Laporta is upset with the performance and level shown by Dutch player Frenkie de Jong, as Laporta believes that the player is not fighting for the badge, not pressing as required, and showing unnatural indifference on the field.
\nBarcelona offered Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong a contract renewal, but the player has not responded yet.<\/p>\n
The newspaper reported that Laporta has started considering the decision to terminate Frenkie de Jong\u2019s contract in January, allow him to leave Barcelona, get rid of his high salary, and sign a player of better quality who can make a difference for the team.
\nThe newspaper concluded that Laporta no longer wants to see the Dutch player at Barcelona for another minute and is actively seeking a way to expel him from the team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
