Barcelona vice-chairman Javier Faus revealed that the club suffered a loss of over €77million during the reign of former chairman Joan Laporta. Before the end of his spell, Laporta announced just €11million of debt, but the new board has found out other results. "The figures presented by the former board don't reflect the real image. They have cheated," Faus said. "There is a structural problem. The sporting excellence in the last few years has not been reflected in economic excellence. "The new board's goal is to bring economic excellence alongside sporting excellence." Barca won a host of trophies during the past couple of seasons, including two Primera Liga titles, the Champions League and the Club World Cup.
