Barça is on the verge of activating the 'lever' from the sale of VIP boxes at the new Spotify Camp Nou. The club would earn 120 million through this route

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona received a harsh and surprising 'setback' on the morning of this Friday, December 27, after the judge of the Commercial Court number 10 in the City of Barcelona denied the precautionary measure that would allow the registration of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor before the end of the year.

The blue and burgundy entity will turn to another judicial route in a higher court, but if they face another 'blow', the Catalans will pull their ace up the sleeve and activate a 'lever' that will allow them to enter the 1/1 rule and enable the registration of both footballers ahead of January 1, the date when their current registrations expire.

This involves the sale of VIP seats in the new Spotify Camp Nou. This 'plan B', approved in the ordinary meeting of the board held last Monday, will generate an income of 120 million euros for operations over the next 20 years from a Qatari company. A figure that is far from the 200 'million' that the club expected to receive in the summer, but which would immediately solve the problem.

A 'lever' with greater benefits

If in Can Barça they finally execute this 'lever', they would not only have the necessary 'fair play' to finalize the registrations of Olmo and Víctor, but also to address the renewals of Pedri and Gavi, and even some signing during the winter market, although, as of today, this is not being considered by the sports management, as reported by 'SPORT'.

The board's idea was to hold off on this route until June, aiming to have more leeway and negotiate a higher price. However, the urgency of the entity to register Olmo and Víctor forces them to have this solution at hand. Likewise, if the income from the boxes turns out to be insufficient, the blue and burgundy team does not rule out activating the personal guarantees of the board. Time is running against the club.
