The economic difficulties that crosses the FC Barcelona, partly sharpened by a sanitary crisis that has moved away to the fans of the stadiums, have generated all type of estimates or speculations on what could be the future of the institution. For some, treats of one of the greater crises in the history of the team, whereas others consider that the club can recover if it takes the necessary measures to time, although with a high price to pay.
In accordance with the expert in right of the sport and CEO of Himnus Football Lawyers and Sports Law Institute, Toni Rock, the debts of the Barça could move away to the team of his participation in the Champions League to the not fulfilling with the Fair Play financial demanded by the UEFA.
It explains that the organism that governs the football in the continent establishes two criteria for this: the first consists in not possessing any debt with his players or with other clubs, whereas the another supposes to not to have it with any administration, was of fiscal or social character. Besides, each institution has to present proofs that his costs are not greater that his income.
Nevertheless, it signals that it exists a margin of deviation with a limit of five million euros, but warns that the Barcelona surpasses this figure widely, by what the club could confront serious problems if no salda his accounts before the date of expiration of the determinate term. One of them would be the retreat of the licence by part of UEFA if the Barça accumulated more than three years in red numbers
Still there are hopes for the Barça
Although Rock sustains that the situation is worrisome, recognises that the FC Barcelona has the active sufficient to face up to the debts. However, the solution goes through the sale of players and a reduction salarial, what will suppose an enormous challenge for the new managerial board of the club.
It warns that it is "utopian" to increase the income in a market that is to the drop and where the rest of the clubs are conscious of the situation of the Barça. In his opinion, the descapitalización would be the only immediate solution, but this to his time would suppose an enormous bajón in the sportive that would turn it into "another Milan" when seeing forced to undo of key pieces and structure the team from zero. For Rock, to the club expect him several years of "travesía in the desert" and does not remain more than "praying to follow classifying to the Champions".
