However, an election will be scheduled within the next 90 days to appoint the new President of the club but until that, a temporary management board will oversee the day-to-day running of the club.
Bartomeu opted to leave rather than ask club members to vote on his future after a debate with local government in Catalonia on whether voting in person would be safe in the current pandemic.
More than 20,000 supporters signed a petition this month for him to be removed as president after growing increasingly upset with his management of the club.
Victor Font, Joan Laporta and Jordi Roche are some of the candidates expected to run in an election to decide Bartomeu’s successor.
Joseph Maria Bartomeu however replaced Sandro Rosell as president in 2014. He had previously been vice president to Rosell, who stepped down after a lawsuit was filed accusing him of hiding the real cost of the Neymar transfer.
Following the Treble under Luis Enrique, Bartomeu was re-elected on a new six-year mandate in 2015.
A number of candidates have already made it clear they want to replace Bartomeu including Victor Font, Joan Laporta, and Jordi Farre.
