FC Barcelona will have no problems covering Hansi Flick's contract. In fact, the operation could be free for the club after what was agreed with Xavi Hernández, who left forgiving the board a million euros

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The cycle of Hansi Flick will not suppose a financial problem extra for the FC Barcelona. In spite of the complex economic situation of the club, which seemed to aggravate with the exit of Xavi Hernández, the terms pactados between the directive and the technician egarense allow to the Barça cover the signing of the German trainer using the money that would have earned the previous staff in case to continue at the head of the first team.

In principle, the Barça had to credit 15 million euros to Xavi and his collaborators by his dismissal a year before the planned. However, the one of Terrassa forgave all his remaining wage to the club, with which the Barcelona group saved 11 'kilos' that serve to amortise the agreement of the technician of 59 years, the one who signed by two seasons with a wage a lot of minor to the that perceived his ancestor.

The agreement of Flick gives a break to the Barça with the 'Fair Play' financial

Diverse Spanish means have confirmed that Flick will earn 3 million net euros by season, with premiums by achievement of aims that can elevate this figure until some 4-5 'kilos'. Xavi, instead, invoiceed €10m in the 2023/24, as the agreed after his renewal the year happened until the summer of 2025. The one of Heidelberg, even, can leave next summer in case of not fulfilling the planned aims (win at least the Glass and arrive far in Champions).

This stage supposes a break for the Barça in matter of 'Fair Play', as LaLiga will not put obstacle to his contracting and clears the way for, in the weeks to come, try close a pair of operations (some traspaso or 'crowbar' pending) that allow him to the club return to the norm of the 1:1 to reinforce . The directive does not foresee a too moved summer regarding signings and exits, but yes is clear the need to concretise, at least, two or three incorporations before closing the staff.
