Barcelona chief executive officer Ferran Reverter has resigned, with sources telling ESPN that the club\'s sponsorship deal with Spotify was the latest in a series of contentious issues between the CEO and president Joan Laporta.
A statement on Barcelona\'s website on Tuesday cited \"personal and family reasons\" for Reverter\'s exit, which will come into effect as soon as a new CEO is appointed.
Reverter had disagreed with Laporta over a number of issues ever since he took the job at Camp Nou.
The agreement with Spotify was seen as the last straw, sources said.
Reverter had played a fundamental role in negotiations with the Swedish company, but he was unhappy with the final terms of the deal, many of which had been revised at the last minute.
