Once the meeting of Joan Laporta's board of directors was over, FC Barcelona issued a statement on its official website announcing a closing of the 2024/25 financial year with a positive ordinary result of 5 million euros. In this way, the club ensures "a positive EBITDA generation that allows consolidating the bases for the 2025/26 season, where the new income generation structure derived from the new Spotify Camp Nou must be extensively developed."
Similarly, the Blaugrana institution assured that they have been prudent with the new Champions League format, budgeting "amounts similar to those achieved in previous seasons." These would be stipulated until the quarter-finals of the competition, a stage in which the club normally calculates these amounts. On the other hand, an increase in television income is also planned.
The club reaffirms its confidence in La Masia
With regard to sponsorship income, the Barça board expects to see a significant increase in profits in this area, reaching a total of more than 250 million euros. In addition, the institution aims to increase its lines "of face-to-face sales and e-commerce to reach a turnover figure of more than 125 million euros."
Finally, at a sporting level, Barça reaffirmed its commitment to La Masia by ensuring that it will continue to trust "in the internal projection of its own players and the specific investment in differential players on a one-off basis."
Meanwhile, in terms of departures, the club expects "profits from player sales similar to the club's historical average." Finally, the wage bill will continue to be around 500 million euros.
