Bad news for 1st of July:

Barcelona have to make a big sale to register their new signings this summer.

Well our salary cap hasnt risen yet. So we need to make room in that wage bill to register.

I think our wage bill will increase before the mercato ends, so we will be in a much better spot then.
LaLiga comes out with the new wage limit at the end of august or start of september.

Yeah, but that's just for public, clubs know their SCL situation all the time.

Whenever something important (like buying or selling a player, signing a new sponsorship deal etc.) happens they have apps where they calculate what state they are in and if they'll be able to register a new player or not.

So there is really no reason for Tebas to come out every week and say we can't register this or that player yet because club knows that. But ofc he loves the spotlight and even more so talking shiet about Barca.

Yeah, La Liga publish those figures in September and February when they have a total overview of what clubs have done but clubs could not operate during summer (or January) transfer window if they wouldn't know how much they can spend. They might not always have the exact numbers because La Liga can reject some of the expected incomes clubs are counting on (like they did with our VIP box sales last year) but they should know approximately where they stand and are also constantly communicating with La Liga.

Football is dynamic, not just on the pitch but also it's economy. Let's use a newly promoted club like Oviedo as an example. They will get significantly more TV money after promotion. Don't know the exact numbers but here is comparision for distribution of TV rights between La Liga and Segunda from the 23/24 season.

We are talking about around a 35m difference.

Additionaly Oviedo will probably sign new and/or improved sponsorship deals as well and earn more money from season tickets. Don't know about last season but in 23/24 they had 21,5k season tickets holders in Segunda. They have a loyal fan base, stadium capacity of Estadio Carlos Tartiere is 30k and I'm sure playing in La Liga after 24 years they will sell even more tickets even with expected increased tickets prices playing against Barca, RM and AM instead of Burgos and Cartagena.

All these revenues will drastically change their financial situation considering Oviedo's salary limit in Segunda was around 13m so it's fair they know how much they can spend on new players and build as competitive team as they can and not wait until September for La Liga's official SCL calculations when TW is already closed.

Makes sense. UEFA is all about sugardaddy clubs now. They don't give a fuck about clubs struggling to keep up without selling themselves to some oil state.

We move on and fuck them. FFP rules that demand from clubs to compete with State of Qatar. :lol:. And then fine them when they try.
