The head of professional sports at FC Barcelona<\/strong>, Xavier O’Callaghan<\/strong>, offered a press conference to provide greater clarity regarding the issue of financial fair play<\/em> in the different sections of the Blaugrana team. Also present at the event were other personalities related to different sections of the club, such as:<\/p>

  1. Marc Viv\u00e9s<\/strong>: technical secretary of the women’s team<\/li> \t
  2. Mario Fern\u00e1ndez<\/strong>: technical secretary of the basketball team<\/li> \t
  3. Jordi Torras<\/strong>: technical secretary of the futsal team<\/li> \t
  4. Gaby Cairo<\/strong>: technical secretary of the roller hockey team<\/li> \t
  5. Miquel Camps<\/strong>: head of the club’s amateur teams area<\/li> <\/ol>

    Firstly, O’Callaghan<\/strong> wanted to emphasize that, as a multi-sports club\u2014managing various disciplines\u2014the regulation imposed by LaLiga<\/strong> in budgetary matters not only affects the first football team, but also “the entire set of sports sections and structures of the entity<\/strong>“.<\/p>

    LaLiga and economic control in all Barcelona sections<\/h2>

    The Catalan manager explained that each season the league calculates based on projected income and expenses, thus establishing the registerable limit for the sports area. “It must be understood that the wage bill is part of the budget<\/strong>, it is not exactly the same<\/strong>,” he noted.<\/p>

    In this context, LaLiga<\/strong> distinguishes between the expenses of the first team and those it calls non-registerable, such as:<\/p>

    1. Salaries of professional sections<\/li> \t
    2. Amateur sports<\/li> \t
    3. Coaches of youth categories<\/li> \t
    4. Management of the Bar\u00e7a Academy<\/strong> <\/li> <\/ol>

      At this point, FC Barcelona<\/strong> revealed that for the 2025\/26 season it will have a non-registerable wage bill of \u20ac95M<\/strong> (\u20ac4M higher than in the 2024\/25 season). “Our responsibility is to find the balance: invest to maintain the competitiveness of all sections, within the rules of the game set by LaLiga<\/strong>, and without losing the identity of the entity,” he emphasized.<\/p>
