This summer again, FC Barcelona is showing itself to be ambitious despite its difficult economic situation. The Catalan club is targeting two Spanish European champions: Nico Williams and Dani Olmo. Concerning the Athletic player, the situation is simple: he has a release clause of €58 million. As for the RB Leipzig striker, although his release clause of €60 million has expired, it is rumored that the German club is willing to negotiate a transfer on the basis of the same amount.
Faced with serious economic difficulties for several years, is FC Barcelona really in a position to achieve this very costly double coup? At first glance, the answer is negative since the Blaugranas have not yet managed to pay Nico Williams’ release clause. However, on the sidelines of Hansi Flick’s official presentation, president Joan Laporta assures that Barça will soon announce excellent financial news and that his club will have the means to achieve its ambitions on the transfer market.
Barça is doing better
“The financial situation is much better than it was, the process has been to save the club and then straighten it out, and we are on the road to normality. Today we can face recruitments of the magnitude you are talking about because we have done the work. Thanks to the understanding and patience of the members, we have been able to work and we can say that we are in a position to carry out all the operations that we think we should do. Deco and his team are working on this aspect so that, if necessary, we can improve the team. In this sense, we will soon announce the economic news that we believe is relevant for this situation that we have reached with a lot of work and effort.”he said, before concluding.
“We have a series of investors who have been regularized. The investments will be made and the valuation of this company will be maintained. We will follow the criteria of LaLiga and work hand in hand. With Nike, we are negotiating to improve Barça’s position, we are satisfied with how these negotiations are going and I think we will have news in the medium term. As for the other sporting relationships, they are being studied by the football management. What we will not do are operations that destabilize the sporting structure that we have. We will be very strict.” The message got through.
