In it Barcelona they are beginning to work releasing financial ‘fair play’ until June. Not only at the level of incorporating new sponsors, especially in reducing expenses that allow him to balance the accounts and go to the summer market with guarantees. Firstly to be able to register all the pending players -Gavi, Araujo, Sergi Roberto, Marcos Alonso and the possible renewal of Alejandro Balde-, but also to be able to sign with the 1/1 rule. And this is a message that is being imposed at the club level, not only in the men’s soccer section, where they have been making cuts for some time. Now it will be the rest of the sections and departments who will have to tighten their belts because, after all, in order to feed the engine of the club: the first football team.
The club has already begun to carry out internal audits to avoid waste, analyze carefully what is invested in and what functions are carried out by both the contracted services, as well as the executives and employees themselves in all areas of the entity. An exhaustive analysis because it is considered that in some sections and departments there are excess positions and overlapping or even duplicate responsibilities. All expenses that are considered unnecessary will be eliminated to free up the budget.
This can also affect the sports planning of the first teams of the professional sections of the FC Barcelona: basketball, handball, futsal and roller hockey. There will be no extra waste next season and it is planned, at a minimum, to renegotiate the large salaries downward.
The feminine, the exception
There will be only one exception: women’s football. In it Barcelona It is considered a strategic section at the image level and is one of the fastest growing at the sports level and also in terms of income. Moreover, it is the only self-sufficient professional section that does not generate losses.
The women’s football model will also be an example for the rest of the sections, which will have to start betting on the people at home. Strengthen the quarry and bet on it and look for specific reinforcements outside to finish being competitive.
