FC Barcelona Finances

Isn't extending Frenkie actually saving money?

Isn't extending Frenkie actually saving money?

It was at one point but not so sure now if it does now in final year.

It would reduce his amortised cost but put more salary on next season which currently wouldnt be there.

Doesnt save as much as would have previously.

Deco may have to get creative again this summer, because as things stand, if we don't get back into the stadium with a clean capacity of atleast 60k by next season, then replacing Frenkie and Lewandowski could get dicey.

You can get creative if you can spend at least 40-50m.

Somehow, we managed to improve the squad by a lot since 2021.

 

[draconifire]

Because we had various financial stims such as sold VIP seats which were able to be accounted for this season

And I’m sure the board told LALIGA we would be playing in the new stadium by now

Ya I suppose that's the case.
So I guess, if we are able to play in Camp Nou before the winter transfer window, that will add 100m of the VIP seat, on top of about 40-50m of yearly matchday revenue aswell.

Guess it is what it is. FDJ might be renewd only after Winter I suppose.

And the 2nd season off Camp Nou was a domestic treble.

 

[delancey]

“Yo bro… we will be in the new stadium next season. Increase our salary cap by 100m. Trust me bro”

That’s the reason for 100m discrepancy? 😛😛😛

 

[JamDav1982]

Vlahovic will be about 2 months of decent form away from signing a pre contract with Barca.

Has a Barca signing written all over it.

 

[Windhook]

Barca are 112m short in income from February. La Liga director, Javier Gomez mentioned it. It's the VIP boxes for 100m. They don't count them as income, not before Camp Nou reopens.

Barca took La Liga to court to be able to register Olmo, it worked for the time being. But now the new audit says no. The reason - those VIP boxes don't exist.

 

[FCBarca]

That's the whole problem with LaLiga summed up. They just make up rules for their own ffp and interpret them like they want to. There are countless examples over the years, how they evaluated same things differently. Nobody aside from them can understand it.
But instead of focusing on this, the clubs gang up on Barca because Laporta tries to find loopholes in this intransparent corrupt shitshow they call ffp. The clubs deserve what is coming with Tebas ruling over them. Laporta should continue to look out for Barca, fuck the rest because they want it apparently.

Opaque as hell, somehow after great season in transfer revenue and further reducing the wage bill we’ve also boasted below:

- Revenue for the 2024-25 season: €950m
- Budget for 2025-26 season: To exceed €1000m
- €44m more generated via ticket sales than last season
- Sponsorship Revenue: Over €260m this season

Finally, after 4 years of financial reorganization the club is in a fantastically improved financial situation by every conceivable metric yet our salary cap has been reduced

Corrupt, through & through

 

[JamDav1982]

Stop spouting utter shite trying to blame La Liga as if making it up as they go along.

Nothing 'corrupt' about it.

Usual folk talking usual shite.

You could argue the rules are too strict but if you think La Liga just make it up as go along you are just dim and believe every lie fed to you.

Council dont open stadium when fans want... CORRUPTION!

La Liga set salary limit fans dont understand...CORRUPTION!

Usual nonsense.

You are arguing for Laportas weakness if think La Liga and Council are corrupt and breaking law against Barca... and dont even realise it.

 

[serghei]

It makes no sense to think La Liga are corrupt with FFP rules. They didn't cause the mess in 2020 and 2021.

I want to know how is our revenue 950m and we don't register a generous profit. How are we barely breaking even.

Where do the money go? It looks to me we have big expenses that aren't made public beyond the squad wages.

Of course they are not corrupt in these rules. These are league wide rules agreed by the clubs and over seen by a man voted in by clubs.

Barca would sue them into oblivion if were and working against the club so obviously.

Same with the shite said about the council.. they are 'corrupt' as wont break the law for Barca.

 

[serghei]

In thos public financial yearly reports you have very broad expenses areas. Nothing detailed. God knows what's in there and what are those expenses actually about.

 

[serghei]

Apparently we still have to pay Liverpool 29m for Coutinho. That's quite a large chunk still to be paid.

Dont think that is correct. Surely...
