Barcelona presidential candidate Joan Laporta has hit out at the sale of Gerard Deulofeu to Everton.

Deulofeu was sold with the election race up and running.

“I have a bad feeling about what the interim management board are up to. It is an improper way for an outgoing board to act," said Laporta.

“I hope they do not continue along this path. They have already sold Gerard Deulofeu and now they want to sign players who are worth large amounts.

“It is abnormal that a management board not elected by the members do these things. It may upset members."
