The Blaugrana president explained that he, and the coaching staff, had been impressed with the player's attitude in pre-season and that plans to sell him could be scrapped.
But that has been met with indifference by Eto'o who is said to still be angry about Pep Guardiola's public announcement that he was no longer in his plans, according to reports in Spain.
After spending four years at Camp Nou, the 27-year-old felt that he should have been spoken to first by the club rather than have to read the decision in the media.
"There is no need for an appraisal of those words and we will talk about them," Eto'o's agent, José María Mesalles said of Laporta's apparent u-turn..
"Samuel's situation is exactly the same as it was before the president said that."
Eto'o has said that his first choice would be to stay at the club and see out the remaining two years on his contract and is making his departure complciated with his high wage demands.
Along with Barça's €30m asking price, the former Real Mallorca goalscorer wants around €8m-per-season from any interested parties and that has already seen various clubs decide not to bid.
Having returned from an extended summer holiday, Eto'o travelled with the Blaugrana squad to Scotland and impressed enoug to now be included for the friendly against Fiorentina and the trip to the United States.
