The current economic situation of the FC Barcelona is extremely delicate, by what the margin of manoeuvre in excessively narrow by what the president of the Barcelona club, Joan Laporta, is forced to carry out a deep restructuring of the first team of masculine football. The market of summer will be long, and will have to take cuantiosas decisions transcendentales in the dispatches of the noble zone of the Camp Nou.
Although with differences in a lot of senses, the Catalan entity lives a moment seemed to the of 2024, in which the sportive direction saw forced to move the changing room to modify the staff of considerable way. Before living a season in which against all prognosis would finalise with the second triplete of the history of the club, the Barça invested 166,72 million euros to reinforce to the team with elements like Luis Suárez, Rakitic, Ter Stegen, Rakitic or Bravo. It received 81,80 millions by the sales, between which stood out the ones of Alexis Sánchez and Cesc Fàbregas. The general balance was of 84,9 'kilos' paid, a quantity that, obviously, now can not equalise.
Now, Laporta has like having to remodel the Barça as in his moment had to do it Sandro Rosell seven years ago, but under a more complicated context: a market braked by the Eurocopa, the Glass America and the Olympic games; the renewal (imminent, but complicated) of Lionel Messi; and a lot of footballers in payroll with index cards that duplicate or triplican his values of market. Therefore, it has arrived the moment to show that the 'did it and will go back it to do' that repeated so many times the current president in electoral campaign did not go only words that carried the wind.
Next steps
In the first compasses of the market of summer, Laporta has showed with facts that it is forced to credit to the austerity. The only cost that has assumed to reinforce the team of face to the next season has been the necessary for 'recover' to Emerson royal after two years and half in the Betis. The other incorporations consolidated (Eric Garcia, 'Kun' Agüero and Memphis Depay) have produced to cost zero.
There is a big possibility that the road of the barters between in action sooner that late. The Barça can not allow an important investment as in the majority of the last courses. In the 'operation gone out', in which up to now they have seen involved Todibo, Miranda and Konrad, as well as in the next hours will do it very probably Junior and Pjanic, also has sent a clear message: if the technical structure does not trust some effective, will be traspasado or yielded. Or even terminated, as Matheus Fernandes. The need to thin the mass salarial is imperiosa.
Except that at the end suceda some surprise, the scales of payments and collections of the Barça before the season 2021/22 will go back to be balanced. There is not another option. The president has to reconstruct the team with some accounts that ask release and this mission, whose success or failure will be 'vital' for a sportive project sustained in the coming years.
