There are no small savings for Barça. In financial difficulty, the Catalan club is trying to recover money where it can. According to Sport, Barcelona leaders have just started proceedings before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). FC Barcelona is demanding a bonus of 490,000 euros that it did not receive from Zenit Saint Petersburg for Malcom. The Russian club was supposed to pay a bonus to its Catalan counterpart each time Zenit qualified for the group stage of the Champions League, provided that the Brazilian played at least half of the matches in the competition. But Zenith Saint Petersburg refuses with the excuse of suspension due to war with Ukraine.
It was they who won their case before FIFA in 2023. We will now see what the CAS will decide, which will deliver its verdict on March 22. Malcom is now enjoying the glory days of Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia. The 26-year-old Brazilian has scored 19 goals in 21 games under Jorge Jesus.
