Both Have Problems with the Club, Josep Bartomeu Needs to Learn from Steven Zhang
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Barcelona and Inter Milan are the two clubs that have faced problems recently. Interestingly, the president of Inter Milan, Steven Zhang, looks more capable of dealing with tangled threads than Josep Maria Bartomeu.
After fasting for the title this season, Barcelona is again facing big waves. The megastar, Lionel Messi, has submitted a request to leave.
Lionel Messi is predicted to be fed up with the problems that continue to hit Barcelona. La Pulga wants to change clubs to return to achievement at the end of his career.
In addition, Barca also felt a sharp thorn in his own body. Yes, several senior players who were not included in the plan of the new coach, Ronald Koeman, fought back. They want to get more respect from the club.
The problem started when Josep Maria Bartomeu contacted the players only by telephone. Bartomeu expressed dismissal without meeting. Bartomeu’s way of solving problems was considered wrong.
Not surprisingly, Bartomeu was seen as a coward. This slanted gaze complements the bad image attached to him since several years ago.
Since being appointed president of Barcelona, Bartomeu is considered to have made several mistakes. Tackling the promotion to drop out of La Masia, making Barcelona in debt, title drought, and mistakes in the transfer market are a series of the president’s big sins.
The problem is, Bartomeu doesn’t come up with a solution that solves the problem. The 57-year-old man even poured gasoline on the hot coals.
Not surprisingly, a wave of demonstrations from Barcelona supporters calling for Bartomeu to resign began to be heard. They are trying to tackle Bartomeu’s desire to win the Barcelona presidential election which will be held next year.
A different scene can be seen when looking at the situation of Inter Milan. Even though we both face problems, the president, Steven Zhang, can handle them well.
Inter’s biggest problem is the deteriorating relationship with Antonio Conte. Reportedly, Conte wanted to leave.
Sparks began to appear after Conte made a statement that attacked Inter Milan. The coach felt he did not get protection from the club.
At that time, Conte received a lot of criticism from the media. Some of the sources of the articles published were team information leaked by insiders.
Antonio Conte is increasingly disturbed because his family’s safety is disturbed. There is a threatening letter containing bullets. The letter was sent to Inter Milan headquarters.
After the failure in the Europa League final, Antonio Conte again raised speculation about his future. The former Juventus tactician admits that he cannot guarantee whether he will remain coach of Romelu Lukaku and his friends next season.
Steven Zhang, who knew the snowball was getting bigger and bigger, finally intervened. He reads the problems well and doesn’t make mistakes like Bartomeu.
The man, who is only 29 years old, held a meeting with Antonio Conte plus Giuseppe Marotta and Piero Ausilio. Zhang realized, there was tension between the three people.
After more than three hours of negotiations, finally the news that was awaited came out. Zhang can put out the fire by making Conte, Marotta and Ausilio survive. They agreed to reduce the ego for the sake of Inter Milan.
“Today’s meeting between the club and Antonio Conte was constructive. All in the name of continuity and various strategies. In this way, the foundation is established to continue the joint project,” wrote Inter Milan in an official statement.
Now, there is a visible difference between Josep Maria Bartomeu and Steven Zhang when facing cases. Steven Zhang tries to keep his anger down, meanwhile Bartoemu is looking for trouble.
