Barcelona Thread

[Marty]

I fancy them to win the Europa as well.

Not with the final in the Sanchez Pizjuan and Sevilla still in the hunt. The trophy is Sevilla's almost by default but no season more than this, I even suspect they deliberately went out of the CL to win this at home.

But no doubt Barca are beginning to get their shit together, at least on the pitch. Will be very interesting to follow them in the summer market.

Sevilla are great in that competition but I really do think Barca look motivated to win it. Theres so many title winners among a fair number of their players. I would fancy them if they faced Sevilla in the final.

Levy still fucking around with ours though losing us money. i know they are Barcelona but it goes to show there are companies out there in the market willing to sponsor stadiums etc.

The deal also includes the training kit, looks like a fair deal.

EDIT: It seems like a very good price for Spotify.

Fantastic win over real Madrid today. Xavi really getting the Barca stroke going again. Shows what happens when you get a manager that matches the clubs philosophy

Maybe Levy is waiting for our kit sponsorship to be up and roll them together in a bigger deal?

Nike deal runs until 2033 and AIA until 2027.

The club has already decided that it will not pay the 30 million purchase option it has on Adama

Fire up the rumor machine

Traore has been OK as an impact sub but far overshadowed by Dembele. Personally I wouldn't have him as a wing back , I just haven't seen any defensive quality from him. He's OK as a backup wide forward but no better than Moura for me.

Hmmm

 

[Tucker]

That’d be one hell of a fire sale, don’t see how they’d make that much.

 

[Kingellesar]

Oh go on then, we will take Pedri, De Jong and Fati.

In all seriousness I bet Arsenal are on the phone asking how much they would like for Aubameyang

 

[sausage]

Probably why we're inundated with stories about Barca trying to discretely flog all their high value players, and said players are like "Nah, Barca siempre!"

Coming soon: "Si - tuve un poster de Steven Gerrard cuando era nino!"

They are selling stakes in their licensing and merchandising and also the TV agreement with CVC.

They expect to raise €740m as a result.

Owch. Isn't that a short term fix and pushes to debt to the long term income?

Didn’t Barca and Real vote against that deal because it meant they would have to give up their individual TV rights? Have they decided to sell out and opt in now?

Spanish clubs approve £1.7bn CVC capital injection but Barcelona and Real Madrid opt out

Thirty-seven clubs voted in favour of the La Liga Boost deal that buys CVC an 8.2 per cent stake in a new company that will get revenues from broadcasting and sponsorship; La Liga president Javier Tebas said: This is a new milestone in the history of La Liga and its clubs.

They are such a bad run club. The Spanish league and TV money is set up to guarantee Barca and Real Madrid as the top two teams. They deserve everything they get.

That is older detail, this has since progressed.

It certainly kicks the can down the street.
