La Liga will respond to Barcelona’s feasibility plan on Monday, approval expected

According to what journalist Ferran Correas has written for SPORT, following the meeting of the delegated board of LaLiga on Friday, Barcelona will now be notified about the approval of their economic feasibility plan on Monday.

The journalist adds that what gave Barcelona the edge was the closure of Barça TV. The league studied Barça’s roadmap in detail and the action such as the aforementioned was key to receiving the green light.

The tentative go-ahead that Barcelona will receive on Monday will be crucial for the team as this guarantees that the team can stretch its arms during the summer transfer market. 

Interestingly, for that to achieve, Barcelona put forward a detailed plan to explain how they would obtain €200 million in two years between the reduction of expenses and income.

Once that is done, the economic vice president of the club, Eduard Romeu, has already stated that the absolute priority would be the registrations of first-team players. 

Now, it must be noted that the contracts of the likes of Ronald Araujo, Marcos Alonso, Sergi Roberto, Gavi and Inaki Pena have already been renewed, meaning that once La Liga comes up with their response, the new contracts will come into effect automatically. Additionally, Alejandro Balde will also close his renewal until 2027.

Furthermore, La Liga’s approval will also allow Barcelona to revert back to the usual 1/1 rule when it comes to signing new players. Earlier, it was ¼. What it basically means is that during the ¼ rule, Barcelona were supposed to €4 euro for every Euro spent.

But now that the 1/1 rule is established again, this will help them in acquiring key reinforcement. 

After months of struggle, Barcelona seem to be finally getting back on track and during this time, the work of Mateu Alemany and Jordi Cruyff needs special mention. Once this feasibility plan is approved, the team from Catalonia can finally put their heads into the transfers.
