The shameful commissions that Barça of Bartomeu paid in their signings

Ferran Reverter, executive director of the FC Barcelona, appeared this Wednesday in front of the media to explain all the related with the 'Due Diligence' that has done in the club. The CEO barcelonista showed transparent and alerted of all the problems that there has been in the Barça these last years. To start with, it left clear that the previous Managerial Board went too far to the hour of fichar.

"The mass salarial, of not being by us, would be of 835 million euros, 108% of the income of the club. The causes were the incorporations of three of the five costlier signings of the history of the Barça", affirmed, referring to Ousmane Dembélé, Philippe Coutinho and Antoine Griezmann. The ex of the Dortmund cost 105 millions more 40 by variables, the now player of the Athletic of Madrid 120 and the Brazilian 120 more 40 in aims.

To the thread of the costs exaggerated of the Board chaired by Josep Maria Bartomeu​, Reverter discovered the dineral that the Barcelona paid in commissions in the signings of these last campaigns. "Also the new agreements and renewals of the staff with increasing wages, that equivalieron to 47 million euros differed. It had to 20% to 33% allocated to commissions, when the usual round 5%", aimed.

Numbers of scandal that put of self-evident the nefasta economic and sportive management of the ex Barcelona president. Besides, in this sense, the CEO cleared that the pandemia was not the main consequence of the crisis culé. "The Covid affected to the Barça in 43 millions in the season 2019-20 and in 65 millions in 9 months of 2021. The television did not have an impact, no ingresó less money. In March of 2020 for the League and eleven parties happen to the following season. The conclusion is that in spite of the pandemia, the Barça would have had losses", signalled.

The previous Board spent without knowing if it could pay

Continuing his criticism to the ex Board of the Barcelona, recognised that they did not have any type of plan to the hour to work. "There was a fault of financial planning. We think that when fichaban did not schedule if they could pay it. The case of Griezmann, the same night that the ficharon saw that there was not money and this night looked for a bottom to do a 'factoring', that has opening commissions. The operation Coutinho, that costs 120 millions, finish costing 16,6 more than financial costs. They bought players without knowing if they could pay them", stood out.

Finally, Reverter admitted that the situation in which the Board of Joan Laporta found to the entity was more dramatic even of what has said . "In March find us with negative net heritage, if it was a SA would be a countable failure that would suppose the dissolution. We find flows of invalid operative box by what had difficulty to pay the payrolls. The debt and the future commitments were of 1.350 million euros by what had to do an urgent refinance", concluded.
