They could but I suppose he also generates a lot of revenue and interest in the club ... not sure if it balances itself out but could be a factor.

At 600k per week you would want to be able to name your tv money price for the prem. We cannot but la liga will apparently offer to pay barca his wages just to keep the gravy flowing.

Messi is 34. You would need to clear his signing on fee over 2 years plus 60 odd mil in wages plus his slice of image rights in increased revenues to breakeven.

I would put this at about 120mil in increased revenues over 2 years. Can 1 player generate 60mil a year? Doubtful.
 
Barcelona agreed Saul Niguez fee. .
But can't agree a wage as they're over the limit

Barca can agree all the fees they want but they can't actually sign anyone until they sell. They can't even offically sign the ones they've already agree terms with.

Nobody is buying Barca's **** cause they're not worth anything

Apparently depay has bent over and taken a wage cut before arriving to make the budget.

Barca are going to shove 4 or 5 out on absolute joke fees just to get rid. Coutinho will go for nothing.

30% I heard

Coutinho, Brathwaite, Pjanic, Umtiti worth next to nothing now as Barca have made it clear they're desperate to get rid. Dembele is unsaleable due to injury and even after he recovers worth less than nothing with the injury record and being in the last year of his contract.

They could sell Griezmann, but they'd be lucky to get less than half of what they paid for him.

Its a shame Barca will never be proper bankrupt, they'll always find money somewhere (same as Real), as I'd like to see them collapse under their own stupidity.

I wouldn’t say they’re worthless. There are actually some relative bargains to be had this summer - just watch City and Chelsea Hoover them up. I’ve never wanted a cash injection more tbh.
 
Rumours circulating that Roman as sanctioned a £150m move for Haaland. If true, I can't see Dortmund rejecting it.
 
Players don't seem to mind being on his scrapheap if they collect money and gongs. Same as managers.

He is getting worse by the look of it not better as he chases city.

Gets a transfer ban and simply doubles down breaking any thought of ffp. Ziyech, goner. Pulisic, goner. Abraham, goner. Werner? Probably gone.

He chews them up and spits them out.

5hen fans in general shrug as they don't see the difference between utd winning everything before and these oil states winning everything. Yet the self same fans batch and moan about price of tickets etc etc etc

Buy loads and stack them up (maybe send a few out on loan) accepting you'll get a transfer ban eventually, serve the ban then sell off the spares to fund purchases for a season or two. Repeat.
 
Morally and prob against the spirit but from
a business perspective, chelsea we’re very smart the year or two before ffp.

Signed a lot of young players for not much. Farm them all out on loan for 2 or 3 years so they develop then sell them for £5m-£10m and the odd one for maybe few more, and suddenly you’ve made £50m a season in transfer fees to use to comply with ffp.

yep…and as ffp has been relaxed this year, they’ll invest big again

The "spares" didnt even cover what they did.

They claim hazard left and they had 100mil sat there but they must have put it in bitcoin or had it supplemented by Abramovich's Russian hackers ransomware.
