“FC Barcelona awaits La Liga response on profitability plan for summer transfer market”

In order to be active in the summer transfer market, FC Barcelona La Liga presented a profitability plan. Should this be approved, the club would have a lot of leeway with possible commitments. However, a response from La Liga is still a long way off.

FC Barcelona with big plans in the transfer market

FC Barcelona have big plans for the upcoming summer transfer market. In addition to numerous departures, the club also wants to strengthen itself in some positions. Above all, a defensive six is ​​high on the list of priorities, Xavi confirmed at the press conference before the game against Real Sociedad. But the Catalans are also looking for new players in other positions, as President Joan Laporta made clear in a recent interview: “We are ready to make commitments in defence, midfield and up front and to strengthen ourselves. But that depends on La Liga accepting our profitability plan. I hope that the President of La Liga sees the efforts we are making to cut costs.”

Barcelona lay out La Liga profitability plan

However, FC Barcelona first have to know how much leeway they will have in the coming season with regard to the salary cap. For this reason, La Liga was presented with the profitability plan mentioned by Laporta – in which the club outlines its plans to cut costs and generate income. If the league agrees to this, Barça should have a largely free hand in the transfer market – provided that some player sales exceed as hoped will walk the stage. “It’s a very strict and conservative plan,” explained Eduard Romeu, Barça’s finance vice-president, in an interview with the SPORT Middle of May. “It is valid for two years and is largely completed. I’m sure it will be approved. I see no reason why he should not be viewed favorably by La Liga.”

Barca await La Liga response

However, La Liga’s response is still a long way off. “At 19. [Mai] The La Liga Delegated Commission will meet and we will receive an answer that will certainly be positive,” Romeu continued in the interview. However, this May 19 has now passed – and an answer is not yet available. Like Barça insider Gerard Romero and the news portal ESPN report, the club is now hoping for an answer in the coming week, i.e. from May 22nd. However, if La Liga’s response were to be delayed even further, this would certainly not help FC Barcelona with regard to the upcoming transfer phase and would throw the plans quite a bit into a mess.

He @fcbarcelona_es He hopes that next week, starting on the 22nd, @laliga make it known if the feasibility plan presented is accepted or not in order to attack the transfer market and assess whether the registrations and the arrival of Messi is possible…@SC_ESPN @SC_ESPN @ESPNFC
