Quote: “We’re addressing it. Deco has done a remarkable job with contracts and transfers, exceeding all expectations this summer. It was a very wise investment.

We’re focused on it. De Jong faced some issues with his previous agent and needed some time. He is very motivated, a great captain, and has recently become a father… He’s a crucial player for us. I believe Deco will soon bring us good news,” Laporta told the media.
