Even if our registration is walking a tightrope, I think it is pretty clear that we are on an upward trajectory and passing the worst of the issues.
As others have said, just an excuse.
Plus if we can only spend 25m on Joan while also raising more than that via sales, then the system is already broke.
Have to speculate to accumulate. Can't have LaLiga clubs needing to sell before being able to buy for the same amount. Not when (a) they generate 1billion in revenue while holding Europe's largest stadia, and (b) while rival leagues operate on different FFP levels.
Look at the UEFA fine, a measely 15m for breaching FFP. A small fee to pay in order to operate in the market. LaLiga take note.
But also, Fuck UEFA, for that fine while allowing other clubs capital increases, sponsorship of ownered owned companies, selling property assets to themselves, owning two clubs and competing in same competition, etc.
