Barcelona president Laporta heads to Copenhagen for EFC Assembly
Summary

FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta will travel to Copenhagen on September 29-30 for the European Football Clubs General Assembly. This marks a significant step following Barcelona's rejoining of the EFC earlier this year after a five-year absence linked to the Super League project. The assembly is expected to include UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin and is particularly relevant for Barcelona, given the recent awarding of the 2029 Champions League final to Spotify Camp Nou. Before attending the assembly, Laporta will also visit the Netherlands to attend the funeral of Ronald Koeman's wife.
