FC Barcelona saw the solution to all its economic woes in the Super League and Joan Laporta did not hesitate to bring the club into the project. However, the tournament has not gone ahead and that leaves the Catalans 'touched' in the face of their sports planning

The failure of the Superliga European has been a 'stick' very hard for the FC Barcelona, that saw in this project the solution to his grave economic problems. Only for participating, the culés went to embolsar some 350 million euros, a quantity tremenda with which can struggle against the crisis. By this reason, Joan Laporta did not doubt in including to his club in the tournament still knowingly that the partners had to give his seen well.

The president of the Barça was conscious that an economic injection so big paliaría part of the problems that have the Barcelona. However, the escape of the six English clubs has finished propiciando that all less the Barcelona and the Real Madrid desmarquen of this competition. The Superliga does not go to go out forward, at least for the moment, and the barcelonistas will have to face his delicate economic situation without any help.

Having this in account, the sportive planning of Laporta and his team complicates so much that right now it seems unfeasible can spend money this summer. The debt in the short term surpasses the 700 million euros and is practically impossible to aspire to the big operations with which dream a lot of culés. Erling Haaland Is the dream of the president and Neymar Jr an increasingly clear aim, but any of the two will arrive to the Camp Nou except surprise.

By the vikingo, the Borussia Dortmund asks some 150 million euros, in addition to the commissions for the father of the forward and his representative, Mino Raiola. The traspaso would rise to perhaps 200 'kilos' without explaining the wage of the player, that will not accept discounts. By all this, is an unreal aim in these moments, the same that a Neymar that only could arrive in case of not renewing and land free in 2022. The another option of fichar to the Brazilian would be by means of a barter, although it seems impossible mission.

Florentino confirmed that the big traspasos depended on the Superliga

Florentino Pérez confirmed in one glimpsed in 'The Crossbar' this Wednesday at night that without the Superliga the big will not be able to fichar big stars. "The signings 'galactic' will not exist without the Superliga. Neither for the Madrid neither for anybody. We are in closing this season of the best form. The signings are of the season that comes. In general it is impossible, if the money does not flow...", it commented the maximum mandator merengue.

If the president of the Madrid leaves to fall that his club will not be able to go to by Haaland and to by Kylian Mbappé, that were his big aims, the Barça, that has a greater debt on a long-term basis and especially in the short term, goes it to have even more complicated. By this reason, think in a big operation for the course that comes does not adjust to the current economic reality of the club. Only they will be able to arrive footballers to cost zero and that accept discounts of important wage. Memphis Depay, Georginio Wijnaldum, the Kun Agüero and Eric García are the options. And afterwards, besides, it is the subject Leo Messi, that follows without renewing and that now only will follow reducing the wage to more than the half. It seems that it goes to touch tighten the belt...
