FC Barcelona Finances

Surely not getting anywhere close to 25m for the sleeve of shirt and not seen that rumoured anywhere.

True, but original source RAC1 reported that Spotify will replace Beko on the back of the training kit, so there might be room for another sponsor (or the same who'll buy the advertising space on the sleeve) on the front of the training kit. Not gonna say it will be 25M, but it might be more as we fans think for front of the training kit + sleeve of match kit.

We'll have to wait until it's official to see if RAC1's information is correct of Spotify only having half of advertising space on the training kit unlike Beko who have printed their logo both on front and back of current training kit.

Sleeves and front of the training kit, no? If I read the original source (RAC1: https://www.rac1.cat/esports/202202...ini-barca-spotify-samarreta-camp-nou-nom.html) correctly, it says that Spotify will replace Beko on the back on the training kit. Beko currently is printed on the front and the back of the training kit, so that should leave the front still to be sold, no?

I think Spotify will have both the front and the back of the training kits, we won't find another sponsor just for the front of the training kits (Rakuten wasn't on the front before). So I think the only "free" place the left sleeve.

Well not all Real fans but rivals of Barca will think it is something they can mock when I doubt Barca fans will care really.

Obviously some names are worse than others. The cheap/dated/corporate names would come across the worst.

Yh well, traditionalism will never go away and some have more proclivity towards it than others
Just the joys of being a conservative about these things
Same people would never complain if it were Tesla sponsoring

We won't get 20-25m for the sleeve sponsorship alone. The previous deal with Beko worth 19m a year includes both the sleeves and the training kits. Now the training kits have gone to Spotify, just the sleeves alone will get us nowhere near these numbers.

If reports are true & Spotify will only be on the back of training kits, we could definitely squeeze 10-15m for the front & sleeve.

 

[Luftstalag14]

Highly doubt it, any other major club that has two sponsors on their training kits?

Spotify are not back of the training kit and wont get anywhere close to 25m for the arm of strip.

The deal is good already though and naming rights for stadium is no big deal to give up for three years. Needs must.

No but first time for everything, every club tends to have sponsor on the front of their shirt, so must be a clue that they will only be on the back.

 

[jamrock]

I don't think we will get 25m, 10-15m

People also said no way would we be getting 100m from Spotify, & look what happen.....

Seems more like something lost in translation of RAC3 article than anything.

The more money the better but back of training shirt is not much value.

Beko was on both the front and back of our training shirts. I am pretty sure Spotify has taken both places too when they included the training kits in the deal.

I dont think anyone even guessed at the numbers for sponsor, training top and stadium all from Spotify.

Probably getting around 88m for those three at moment.

Fair points, let's see what the actual details are when the deal is announced.

 

[Porque]

Timing of the resignation is horrible though. Shines a negative light on the deal in the media. Spotify can't be happy with that.

Should have left it a week at least until the initial press reactions have passed.

Agreed. No matter what the reasons of his resignation are, whether it is triggered by the Spotify deal or not, the club should not have announced it right now if the Spotify deal is imminent. It is said that Reverter had wanted to quit for a while and his resignation has been on the desk of Laporta since last week, to your point they should have held it for a bit longer.
