He stated that this approach is in contrast to Real Madrid's, which relies heavily on the transfer market to acquire players. Laporta explained that Barcelona's strategy is built on a strong sense of identity and institutional pride, whereas Real Madrid's approach is more focused on power and success.
Despite their differences, Laporta described the rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid as one born out of mutual respect and institutional pride. This respect, he believes, is a key factor in the intense rivalry between the two clubs.
Barcelona's recent success, including a domestic Treble last season, has only strengthened their identity and approach. Laporta is proud of the club's values and is committed to continuing this approach in the future.
