Rodrigo Hernández, ‘Rodri’, (Madrid, 1996), does not arrive at Barcelona as just another signing. This was staged by president Joan Laporta raising his fist in the air after dining with the player at the Botafumeiro restaurant in Barcelona after signing the contract that ties him to the club until 2031 following a payment of a maximum of 60 million euros fixed to Manchester City, which could reach 75 in variables. In return, Barcelona gets the 2024 Ballon d’Or winner, and, above all, a piece that fits like a glove in Hansi Flick’s Barça machinery. A humble footballer, raised in a family of professionals, university-educated, without social media, and with a surgeon partner, who has maintained a life away from the noise of football. He will wear the number 16 jersey. These are the reasons for his signing.
The Rome Prosecutor’s Office is investigating the death of a 27-year-old Italian young man in Barcelona on June 1, three days after being arrested in a shop near Portal de l’Angel. During the arrest, the young man suffered a cardiac episode that required medical attention and was taken to Hospital del Mar, where he died.

The IV Meeting in Defense of Democracy began this Saturday in Barcelona with a clear purpose: to present to the world strategic principles for combating the far-right wave that questions multilateralism and democracy, a current embodied by the US president, Donald Trump, whom no one mentions in this conclave but whose political action is very present. Led by the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, the meeting began with his intervention, in which he advocated for a “concerted action” by all progressive governments in the world in favor of “strengthening the alliance” that convenes them today, and combating “fear with more democracy, and inequality with more justice”. In the background of this commitment is the joint proposal to reform the UN due to its ineffectiveness in facing global challenges and acting in the face of the proliferation of international conflicts.

When both teams face each other on the field, tension and excitement overflow, but the final whistle never means the end of the endless match that Barça and Real Madrid play at the highest level in all football sectors.
