That only stops clubs from registering new players. Messi could have stayed and been registered had he signed before June 30th.

Just sell Dest, Emerson, Pjanic, Moroba if Griezmann won't move.

So, Messi is a pussy? Even the haters wouldn't go as far...

I don't think so Tebes said otherwise
"Barcelona have exceeded their wage cap," Tebas said on Monday. "I hope they can keep Messi, but to do so, they will have to make cuts elsewhere."
I don't think Messi's old salary and contract counts as reduction for the La Liga regulations. They differentiate between contracts ending and players leaving by transfers/swaps etc pp. Hence the problem with renewing Messi vs re-signing him (former would have been okay, even for his old salary, and the latter not).

nice try, Sergi
Yeah, it doesnt count. So far we have released about 15-20M of wage bill with Firpo, Todibo, Ale?a, Akieme, Konrad, Trincao, etc. Peanuts.

Not peanuts Trincao was on 140k a week

Maybe he didn't agree to the deal offered by the club until recently, or maybe he still hasn't agreed to the proposed cuts.

Tebas said wage it is all about money saved, so I think there is room for interpretation here.
You might be right, but I think it is very doubtful.
I think all mentioned wage bills is compared to last year, so it should be considered savings.
AFAIK that is only true if we had financial losses.
The rules are there to protect clubs from losses, so the soft cap is there for that protection.
It is already said that if you can get extra money, even from your own owner, you can increase your spending.
We won't be breaking any rule if we are over the cap using the league legalized exceptions, and we won't be having any problems again if we end the next year with profits.
I think it is pretty clear with fans back in the stadium, the club is betting on that. We will have a wage bill based on last year finances, but we will have a more normal income
Todibo, Akieme and Konrad weren't registered last year. They are part of the income from transfers but not from wages.
liga has no authority over B team spendings

We also had the audit for months tbh. Messi deal was always going to be the biggest deal there.
We needed to know the situation of the club before making an offer.

Not really Griezmann's fault either tbh. It's understandable why he want to remain in Spain and re-join Atletico. He's lived almost his entire life in Spain and probably want some familiarity, not to forget his wife never wanted to leave Madrid to begin with
Drag Alba's name through the mud if he refuses a paycut though.

Why interrupt Messi's holidays? He is having fun with his wife and children and will in a very relaxed shape sign a new contract when he is back.
