'I'm overweight': Laporta opens up on his health issues

Speaking in his interview with La Vanguardia, Barca president Joan Laporta confirmed he is dealing with some challenges with his weight.

"My health? We lead a very intense life. I'm fine, but I'm overweight and I've started a diet. I'm working on it. But don't worry," Laporta said.

Laporta raised cause for concern among Barca fans when pictures emerged of the president's immense weight gain over the last year.
