It's pretty hard to tell what the guy actually did, besides being involved in the shadier facets of the Neymar deal. Barca has so many executives, it's hard to see. E.g. at one point they at the same time had Sanllehi as Head of Football and Begiristain as Head of Sport. When Txiki left for City they got in Robert Fernandez as DoF. Who's the boss? The Head of Football or the Director of Football? Who even does what in such a muddled setup? Also a bit worrying that he's apparently not a football but more of a marketing/business guy who's just worked in football for a very long time.
And I'm also worried about Edu, tbh. Don't think he's got enough to stand his ground. Neither Corinthians nor Brazil have been super successfull during his stints there. The job descriptions of Teammanager and Teamcoordinator also reek of some of the alibi jobs Bierhoff did/does for Germany and I wouldn't let that guy near any club I support.
E.g. I'd be feeling more comfortable with Mislintat still at the club and Per Mertesacker in a more advanced role than Head of the Academy.
Like you say there were so many executives there it’s hard to attribute success to one man.
I’d hesitate praising someone for his role at Barcelona anyway. After Rosell left they’ve been one of the worst run top clubs in Europe.
