Barça are in a complicated economic situation and as part of their plan to get out of it they need to finalise the sale of 49% of Barça Studios that they made to several investors

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona knew this week the new limits salariales of LaLiga of face to what will be the market of summer and to a complicated figure of 270 'kilos', which already came exceeded in almost the double, has had to see like the patronal reduces it even more after making the numbers pertinent calculations between profits and costs of the Barcelona entity. It is thus that with these problems salariales, which the club carries dragging from does years, seems more necessary that never can earn the purchase of 49% of Barça Studios by part of the German bottom Free Football Finance.

The collection of this debt, as well as the fulfillment of the budget of this year, would allow to the Barça go back to the norm 1/1 to the hour of fichar. At present it follows the rule 1/2, that forces him to free the double of what spend in wage and amortización of the signing, something that would do him a summer complicated again to Joan Laporta, and now to Deco already like attendant to plenitud of the sportive direction culé.

The Barça keeps a mass salarial high and has to go out of her what before

And it is that in case of not earning the money pactado, apart from having problems for fichar, the club would have to sell players in addition to trying achieve new income of sponsorships or rights of television, as it explained the economist Ivan Head in the 'Chain BE'. The information leaves clear that the exit of players by 100 or more million euros would be the only another tangible alternative that Laporta would have right now to leave backwards the norm of 1/2, and avoid even go back to the one of 1/4 of does a pair of years.

It is necessary to remember that the Barça is the club with greater mass salarial in Europe, only behind the PSG, and in his big measure is due to the economic situation that there was inside the football by the pandemia, which forced to the club to delay some payments to players, payments that arrive until the day of today. It is the case of Messi, Jordi Alba, Busquets, or also of Frenkie of Jong, that yes follows like Barcelona. That's why in the mass salarial of the club still compute payments to exjugadores, and in spite of the course of these and of a lot of other footballers with high wages, the Barça follow drowned with this subject.
