It would be midnight before they left for Brussels airport, and there was a risk that the airport would be closed by the time they arrived, and it was agreed it would be better for them to travel the next day.

It appears that one way or another, the conversation between Laporta did take place. Laporta is Xavi’s boss, and the different sources report that the balance of power was weighted differently during that conversation. That is a perspective which probably changes depending on each person too.
