Will the sale of Malcom to Saudi Arabia bring any financial benefit to Barça?

Malcom, exfutbolista of the FC Barcelona, could be generating economic profits for the Barcelona entity even after leaving to form part of the club. The Brazilian extreme of 26 years would be 'doing the cases' for his transfer of Russia to Arabia, since the To the Hilal, as they have informed several media, would be interested in doing with the services of the footballer.

In case that it produced the traspaso of the exjugador of the Burdeos to the 'To the-Za'eem', the combined Barcelona would perceive a small percentage of this sale, because when the paulista was sold to the Zenith of St. Petersburg in August of 2019, the Catalan entity issued a communiqué in which it established that it reserved "a plusvalía in the case of a future sale of the player". According to the journalist Toni Juanmartí, this percentage would be of 7,5%.

Malcom goes to the To the-Hilal. I create, and to see if somebody can corroborate it, that the Barça does not earn because this 7,5% reserved was in case of plusvalía. And To the-Hilal does not surpass the 40M of traspaso that credited the Zenith in his day.

The Barça no 'rascaría' at all by the traspaso of Malcom

Still it has not revealed the quantity that would be had to disburse the To the Hilal to incorporate to the exjugador of the Corinthians. His value of market, according to Transfermarkt, is priced in some 30 million euros, to be like this, the institution of the Catalan capital would not be perceiving any type of economic profit, since the percentage to win activated in case of plusvalía and Malcom would have depreciated his economic value. The combined Arab, that also is interested in Raphinha to cover this position, could not being had to do a so big investment by the player and would look for to purchase it to a lower price to the 40 'kilos' more 5 in variables that disbursed the Zenith in his moment.

By the price of market of the player and the fact that the Arab clubs, although they offer agreements economically estratosféricos, do not pay a lot of money by traspasos and Malcom has still agreement until 2027 with the Russians. It seems that the Barça no 'rascaría' at all by this operation.
