Moribund a few months ago, unable to validate its new recruits with the Spanish league due to lack of resources, FC Barcelona is doing better. Much better. The club’s performance on the sporting scene attests to this – the Raphinha and Lamine Yamal are working miracles this season and are bringing the Blaugrana colors to the skies. And the situation is also improving in the institution’s coffers.
This Saturday, the Catalans officially announce the signing of a new contract with equipment manufacturer Nike. An agreement covering the next 14 years with a budget of 158 million euros already in hand. By 2038, the Spanish press is talking about a deal worth 1.7 billion euros, or an average of 127 million euros guaranteed each year.
Even better than Real Madrid

Beyond that, the collaboration will be even more advantageous for the Barcelona residents, who will earn 15 million more until 2038. And this regardless of their performance on the field.
