The clear risk that Barça runs if it breaks relations with Nike early

The FC Barcelona confronts to a crucial month in March, since it has to take a definite decision on which company will be his next sponsor and manufacturer of his equipaciones for the campaign 2024-25. In principle, if all continue on its course normal, Nike, the company with which the club is associated from 1998 and with which has agreement until 2026 (postponable by two years), would be the attendant to provide the clothing for the next period. Nevertheless, given the recent informations that have arisen on this subject, would not be surprising that this situation experience a significant change in the weeks to come.

The Catalan cast has the wish to change of sponsor mainly on economic grounds, since it would be interested in migrating to another mark, like Cougar, that, as it has informed , has presented a quite attractive proposal to financial level. However, still it has not arrived to a concrete agreement, and also has arisen the name of the Danish signature Hummel like an alternative to manufacture the equipaciones of the team, although this option would involve to leave visible the own mark of the Barcelonan institution during a year.

The problem to the that confronts the FC Barcelona if 'break' with Nike

As it informed 'Sportive World', seems that there is an important part of the Barcelona directive that wishes to break immediately the alliance with the North American company. Nevertheless, although the picture blaugrana has the capacity to communicate with two years of antelación that does not wish to renew his agreement, which would be inside the suitable term to do it, are evaluating all the possible consequences that could derive to break with Nike.

According to the referred source, when finalising the contractual relation with the company homónima to the Greek goddess of the victory and use an own T-shirt during a year, the Barcelonan square would remain without the fixed quantity that the technical sponsor already pays, which would be a problem for the FC Barcelona in his current economic situation precarious, since it can not allow begin with a deficit of 80 M€ (the fixed quantity that Nike provides). Besides, this would increase the risk to have to face possible litigios.

It will be necessary to expect and see how develops this 'serial' teniendo in account all the options that are considering , like Cougar, Hummel and Nike. If the club decides to renew with the North American signature, this would involve a new contractual association with montos nearer to which the Barcelona cast wishes. It will be interesting to see if the company of the 'swoosh', with his apparent wish to follow linked to the Barça, decides to equalise the offer or keeps firm in his posture.
