Spanish news agency EFE claims that the commison charged with the change of Barcelona's by-laws will propose to change the duration of a presidential term to a period of six years.The current duration of four years had to be adapted to the new Catalan legislation about sports clubs and associations that says that presidential terms should be between six and eight years. Barcelona unsuccesfully tried to negotiate an exception with the Catalan government.
Just like it is now, a president could in the future also be re-elected once, which would mean a maximum term of twelve years. The changes to the club's by-laws have to be adopted by a general assembly in August or September. Another proposal says that socios should be able to vote in the presidential elections by internet.
