The women's Bar?a is making its first individual tour of the United States, a milestone for the Bar?a club and for Spanish women's football, but despite being the current European champion and having gone to a pioneering country in the rights of women. sportswomen, the entity fears that the trip will end up involving losses at a very difficult economic time.
This was advanced by the 'ARA' and was able to certify it EFE, who spoke with club sources who explain that in the most optimistic forecasts the tour "will serve to cover expenses." On the other hand, despite the achievement of the historic treble last season, Bar?a has not yet begun to negotiate the renewal with the main sponsor of the women's first team since 2018, the American brand Stanley Black & Decker, which ends its contract with the Bar?a entity on June 30, 2022, Stanley contributes more than 3.5 million euros a year to Bar?a, an income that serves to cover all the salaries of the first team players. In addition, the tools and safety brand is a 'global partner' of the first men's team. On Saturday (11:36 p.m. Spanish time), Jonatan Gir?ldez's team will play third place in the International Champions Cup against Houston Dash in Portland after losing 2-3 to Olympique Lyon in the semifinals.
Hope they'll negotiate a new deal soon or we're at risk losing important players next year.
