It's crazy that they are purchasing 11% the tv and commercial rights for 50 years yet also being fully compensated for their investment within 80 percent of the time by the clubs.
Probably why Bundesliga and Serie A rejected.

If it is the same company, La Liga is getting into bed with the British.
CVC Capital Partners is a leading British private equity firm with about US$111 billion in secured commitments since inception across European and Asian private equity, credit and growth funds. ... Since 1981, CVC has completed over 300 investments across a wide range of industries and countries.

A the moment BEKO jersey sleeves are not printed... so the deal is dead or not? Because there are Beko prints on traning shirts.

Most likely because Beko reportedly went down from paying as 19m before to just 10m, using the pandemic as an excuse, so naturally we won't be putting their logo on everywhere like before.
The same case applies to Rakuten, because they are paying us 25m less (bastards), the Rukuten print is gone from Barca B's jerseys.

Some key figures that Laporta revealed today highlighting our more than dire financial situation:
- Gross debt is at 1.35 billion euros, 15% than the end of 19/20 which was at 1.73 billion euros. Components of the debt:
(1) Money owed to financial entities: 673 million
(2) Money owed to other clubs and payrolls of athletes: 389 million
(3) Litigation that they believe the club will lose: 90 million What the heck is this??
(4) Advance payments for television rights: 79 million Why? How?
(5) Espai Barca: 56 million
(6) Installments that will not be collected: 40 million What the heck is this?? Why?
- Revenues for the 20/21 season were 631m (club figure, which is always higher than how Deloitte measures. I am guessing Deloitte will probably show our revenue to be around 500m), a 26% decrease from 19/20 by club measures
- Expenses for the 20/21 season were a whopping 1.14 billion (1136m to be exact), which was 19% more than 19/20 (995m). How the heck is that even possible?? How do they justify spending 19% MORE, now in the north of a 1b euros, when our revenue was taking a huge hit? I want to see itemized details listing every spending category and items, especially explanations for what amounted to the 19% increase.
- Losses for the 20/21 season were 481m based on the figures above, the impact of COVID was only 91m (revenues lost due to COVID were 217m, offset by reduced spending of 126m).
- Equity (assets - liabilities) is at -451m, working capital (what we are owed minus what we owe) is at -553m
- Actual wage bill for 20/21 was 617m while La Liga's salary cap for 20/21 for us was 237m. Knowing this, Bartomeu's board still put 415m in the budget for wages for 20/21.
- Actual saving from the wage bill for 20/21 was 68m, including real wage reductions and deferrals, not the 172m figure that was declared by Bartomeu, according to Laporta
- Last but not least, renewing Messi would mean an operation of 250m (probably the entire length of his contract with the club, including deferred wages beyond the two years)
- Gross debt is at 1.35 billion euros, 15% than the end of 19/20 which was at 1.73 billion euros. Components of the debt:

Get players out, especially the high earners with a lot of amortizations left, since our problem is more salary cap than actual revenues. Also, selling players in today's age of COVID won't generate much.
