Thomas Heurtel held a fiery press conference at a Barcelona hotel, where, alongside his agent David Carro, he detailed the breakdown of the agreement with Bar\u00e7a.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe family reserves the right to take appropriate legal action; the case is already in the hands of lawyers,\u201d<\/em> stated Carro. \u201cYou can\u2019t work like this. If a given word means nothing, then we\u2019re playing a completely different game. You paid for a flight, a hotel, chose a jersey number, and assured us there would be no issues…\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The player himself added: \u201cYes, obviously they made a fool of me. First, they left me in Istanbul, but this time it\u2019s worse: I moved my kids and my wife to come here. It\u2019s an enormous lack of respect. I was very excited to come here; it was an opportunity for both sides. I thought I could help a struggling Bar\u00e7a this year. I wanted to relaunch my career at a great club like Bar\u00e7a.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The decision to cancel the transfer was made by club president Joan Laporta, following numerous criticisms expressed by Bar\u00e7a fans on social media after Mundo Deportivo<\/em> reported the news.<\/p>\n The operation was officially called off this morning after a meeting in Paris involving Josep Cubells, the executive in charge of the basketball division, sporting director Mario Fern\u00e1ndez, and coach Joan Pe\u00f1arroya.<\/p>\n According to Carro, the main person responsible for the chaos is Josep Cubells: Thomas Heurtel held a fiery press conference at a Barcelona hotel, where, alongside his agent David Carro, he detailed the breakdown of the agreement with Bar\u00e7a<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":421591,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[305,199],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-421593","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-acb","category-euroleague"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-03-alle-19.59.11.png","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/421593","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=421593"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/421593\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/421591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=421593"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=421593"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=421593"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=421593"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=421593"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=421593"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
