Bartomeu resigns as Barcelona’s president

Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has resigned following increasing fan pressure and a public fall-out with Lionel Messi.

Bartomeu, who became president in 2014, was set to receive a vote of no confidence with fans attempting to remove him.

He fell out with forward Messi after the Argentina striker handed in a transfer request in August.

His resignation comes three days after Barca’s 3-1 home defeat to bitter rivals Real Madrid.

Bartomeu is due to step down in March, having served the maximum two terms as club president.
