From 20 million to nothing: Barça complicates its departure to the transfer market

The FC Barcelona happened of the optimistic message of Ferran Reverter, CEO of the club, of "yes, can fichar. The last exit of an important player generates us a fair play positive of 20 millions" to the realism of Mateu Alemany, director of football of the Barça, aiming that "no us leftover at all. It will be necessary to see if in January can carry out other actions that give us more Fair Play to be able to look for alterativas that like to the míster". Everything in less than a month and half... How it happened the Barcelona entity to have a positive margin to remain without at all?

It is necessary to begin standing out that the Barça has very difficult to go out to the window of wintry transfers if they do not produce important exits. In plural and with upsetting in the importance of the sales with plusvalías and the discounts salariales drastic. Of another way, there is not like doing it and that is the only current reality of the club culé. The positivism of Ferran Reverter, with the margin of 20 millions by the exit of Antoine Griezmann, has dissolved completely and, in these moments, the Barça is as when it could not renew to Messi.

However, it is necessary to loan great attention to what has happened with the 20 'kilos' of which spoke the CEO of the Barça at the beginning of the month of October to comprise how, a month and half afterwards, to the Barcelona "no them leftover at all". Nine days after the words of Reverter, on 15 October, announced the renewal of Pedri González. The midfield player saw improved his agreement, with an extension of his stay in the Camp Nou until 2026 and a wage of around three million euros, as you report them. There it is when it begins to subtract.

Six days afterwards, arrived the renewal of Ansu Fati, on 21 October. The canterano signed an agreement until the 2027 and will see a significant improvement of his annual income, a lot greater of the one of Pedri, of agreement to the information that has handled . Ansu Could brush the 8 or 10 million euros by season. A very upper figure to what earned up to now and that, as it begins to be effective from this season (like the one of Pedri) follows subtracting to the 20 'kilos' of profit in the summer.

The two renewals, importantísimas of face to the future, is not the only in what it has 'spent'. The dismissal of Ronald Koeman also supposes an outlay for the Barça that imputes for this period and that the club is forced to pay. SAnd speech of some 13 million compensation and, by consistent, also subtract to the mount above-mentioned. To this, it is necessary to add him the contracting of the new trainer and technical body, that curiously has been the most economic.

It is not a secret for anybody that Xavi Hernández arrived to the Barça to earn much less, but this does not mean to that his traspaso was free, neither much less. The Barcelona entity, between the payment of the clásula (the half, fits to stand out) and the wages of the new 'staff' great around 3,9 million costs for this season. In any case, this operation only was possible thanks to the rule of 4% of LaLiga to inscribe to the new technical body, that meant some 2,9 'kilos' because it arrived with the already begun course.

The signings are difficult... And a bathroom of realism

Mateu Alemany Commented in the presentation of Dani Alves that "to day of today go to be able to inscribe to Xavi and his technical body. No us leftover at all. It will be necessary to see if in January can carry out other actions that give us more Fair Play to be able to look for alterativas that like to the míster. To day of today is not possible; from the day 1 January already will see", in a very clear sample that the Barça is not to jump to the market if it does not produce a discount in the mass salarial very significant.

To go out to the market, it would be necessary 'give off' of players like Frenkie of Jong or Marc-André ter Stegen... And no by any mount. In the case of the Dutch, the Barça would have to amortise still some 50 million euros, by what so that the operation have plusvalías, it would be necessary to sell it by a mount upper. The culés would have profits of maximum 30 'kilos'.

Also it is the case of Coutinho, Umtiti, Lenglet... But it is very very known that are not players by which would perceive an important quantity and in the case of the Brazilian still there is an amortización pending. The panorama is complicadísimo and remains the feeling that Dani Alves could be the only signing for January... Although Joan Laporta promised three.

And the renewals?

To the margin of the market of signings, are the renewals of players like Ronald Araújo, Gavi and Dembélé. The club is working to achieve them as soon as possible, but with this panorama (and the 0 in the profits) seems difficult that can complete before it go back to open the market of signings, because as the ones of Ansu Fati and Pedri, suppose an increase of wage, at least in the case of the charrúa and the midfield player.

With Dembélé it is necessary to hurry so that it do not turn into a new 'case Messi' and the Barça have to free four times what will earn. The most likely is that the club offer him a renewal in half of what is perceiving at present (around 20 gross millions) by what the registration would produce immediately, considering that 'Demouz' is one of the players that represents 5% of the mass salarial and that with him applies the rule '1 to 2': when it accept a reduction of wage, will free the mount to inscribe it.
