In a long Q&A article on Barcelona released yesterday, TA reporter Laia Cervello Herrero responded to questions about Barcelona’s current financial situation.

Do you think Barcelona can carry out transfers worth more than 50 million euros next year?

Reporter:

This depends on many factors. They need approval from the auditors to sell VIP seats at the refurbished Camp Nou stadium. This operation has been put on hold, so they still have not reached the 1:1 rule (La Liga teams are free to spend every euro of income) to operate normally in the transfer market.

It also depends on whether they can make big-name player sales, which would make things easier. Lewandowski is one of the players who is out of contract at the end of this season and any potential departure could help reduce Barcelona's wage burden.

Barcelona have also lost a lot of money due to delays in renovating the Camp Nou stadium, so we will have to wait a few summers to see heavyweight signings, especially considering the number of players they have to sell on the women's side, as this will have an impact on the men's salary cap.

For all these reasons, it is difficult for me to imagine how big a transfer move will happen at Barcelona next summer. But with a management like this, you never know what might happen...
