Doubts about the return to the 1\/1 rule this summer"},"content":{"rendered":"
The FC Barcelona continues in its arduous task of restoring a stable financial situation in the eyes of LaLiga and the ‘Fair Play’ Financial regulations<\/strong>, with the goal of being able to operate once again under the 1\/1 rule. This regulation basically allows the Barcelona team to invest in signings every euro they obtain from sales in the transfer market.<\/p> It is important to remember that, at this point, the Catalan team was in a pressing situation to meet this requirement. Why? Due to the non-payment of \u20ac40 million that Libero Football Finance was supposed to pay since June 15, 2023, for the acquisition of a stake in Bar\u00e7a Studios<\/strong>. This debt increased to \u20ac100 million by June 2024, as the German company committed to pay another \u20ac60 million, which also did not make it to the club’s coffers.<\/p> Now, despite the efforts made by the club to reverse this situation, being very close to covering the deficit generated by the \u20ac40 million unpaid by Libero<\/a>, they still need to cover the remaining \u20ac60 million to stop being penalized<\/strong>. These \u20ac40 million help to balance the outstanding debt from the previous summer (2023). However, the \u20ac60 million that have not yet been paid correspond to the budgeted amount for this summer of 2024.<\/p> These \u20ac60 million are crucial for Barcelona to comply with the 1\/1 rule. However, as reported on ‘RAC1’, it seems that this situation will not be resolved soon, and no news is expected at least until the end of August<\/strong>. This forces the Catalan team to consider selling players<\/a>, reduce salaries, and increase revenues if they want to make new acquisitions.<\/p> The \u20ac60 million put FC Barcelona in check to start operating under the 1\/1 rule<\/h2>
