Gracias CaixaBank.

What is our problem ?!

Is it more important to get players out to save their wages or get players out for the transfer fee ??

As [MENTION=13941]Luftstalag14[/MENTION] said wages are our main concern.

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.

Lukaku, Grealish&Co. disagree with that. I'm sure we could sell likes of Frenkie, Pedri and Ansu for big money right now but we obviously don't want that.

Problem is selling players on high wages who have mostly underperformed or been injured for years. Covid doesn't play much role here imo, we'd have problems to offload those guys in "normal" times too. It's true without Covid we wouldn't be as desperate to get rid off them as we are right now though. Our wage bill would need to be dealt with over next 2-3 years but we could've kept Messi and probably bring some quality players as well while paying part of their wages to send likes of Cou, Pjanić and Umtiti on loans.

President Joan Laporta has secured a 10 year loan for Bar?a from the Goldman Sachs investment fund worth €455M. The club will have to return the loan in full within the 10 years, with an interest rate of 1.98% and a guarantee in Bar?a’s television rights. [cadena ser]

The agreement also ensures the issuing of a new debt of €70M in the event that the club has to make late payments. [cadena ser]

1.98% is great, but the 10-year term is quite short, as supposed to the originally rumored 15-year deal. I guess it is good in the sense that we are deepening our rapport with Goldman Sachs, as we will need to borrow more from them for Espai Barca.

It's a never Ending deal with GS, they know it's impossible to repay them in a period so short.

And them taking the role of "Financial Advisor" for FCB they are going to insure their interest first THEN FCB.

At 1.98% interest GS is not interested to get it's money back in a conventional way, that would be a waste of money and time from them.

The first economic projections for this season point today to "new millionaire losses"

It is a fact that, according to the club, conditions the sports planning that seeks above all to lighten the wage bill and bet on young people.
Bar?a is a sinking ship ... The loss forecast for this new season remains high.

At this point, the wage bill continues to be above 65%
The agreements with Alba and Busquets have been announced, but it has to continue with other players

SER | The club will enter 130 million sales in this market, including the purchase of Atletico by Griezmann

SER | For a strategic reason, the club decided not to sign any players on transfer fees this summer. But sources from the sports administration say that the club will contract in the winter if necessary
