Barcelona ready with €100 million plan B to register new signings

Barcelona have done an excellent job when it comes to steering out of the financial crisis that was looming large earlier in the summer.

The activation of not one but three economic levers has helped the club bring in a hefty €767 million. It has proven to be useful in settling some of the debts as well as signing a few star players in the market, including Jules Kounde and Robert Lewandowski.

However, despite the massive income the club have registered ahead of the 2022/23 campaign, there still remains a layer of uncertainty, particularly when it comes to the registration of the new signings.

Willing not to take any risks, it appears Barcelona have approved a fourth economic lever, which is the sale of 25% of the club’s Barça Studios, reports Catalunya Radio.

The sale could hand them yet another handsome revenue that may not only help them register the new signings but also target other top players in the market, including Bernardo Silva.

However, Barcelona are only open to executing the economic lever if La Liga refuse their proposal to sign the new players, which appears to be unlikely at the moment.

According to recent reports, Barcelona have a healthy income projection ahead of the 2022/23 campaign, and their overall workforce expense stands at around €620 million, which meets La Liga’s €680 million cap.

It means not only are Barcelona in a position to register all their players without any fuss, but they are also in a healthy economic situation. It makes them self-sufficient and could aid them in funding a move for a top target like Bernardo Silva, without having to offload Frenkie de Jong.

However, should La Liga once again come into a disagreement with Barcelona over the financial fair play rules, the Catalans are more than prepared to balance the books by activating yet another economic lever.
