Barça expects to have 200 million euros to sign in this summer market. Club sources have confirmed this after the sale of 10% of the club’s television rights has recently been activated. To reach 200 million, another 15% of the television rights still have to be closed, an operation that they hope to complete before the team leaves for the tour of the United States, in just over two weeks, although from the club They recognize that it will be difficult.
The best positioned fund to date to capture the remaining 15% is, once again, Sixth Street. The company that bought 10% of Barça’s television rights for 25 years in exchange for 205 million would be willing to put another 400 to end 25% of these rights.
With the activation of these economic levers, Barça avoids closing the year with losses for the third consecutive year and will allow it to have income with which to face the transfer market. With these 200 million that they estimate to have in the club’s coffers, they hope to be able to face the signing of Robert Lewandowski, who would arrive at Barcelona in exchange for 40 million euros. The agent of the Polish striker, Pini Zahavi, welcomes the operation and believes that Bayern would agree to let the player out for this figure.
It would also open the doors to the incorporation of Raphina, for which Barcelona offers 50 million euros to Leeds. The Brazilian has another more succulent offer of 75 million on the table, offered by Chelsea, but the striker prefers to stay at the Camp Nou. The signing of him would not mean goodbye to Dembélé, club sources say. Both Xavi and the footballer himself want him to continue dressed as a Barça player, but his offer entails a 40% salary reduction compared to his previous contract, which would place him on the same salary scale as Ansu Fati.
Who would leave the club would be Clément Lenglet, who would go on loan to Tottenham. The London club cannot face the entire player file and would put more than seven million euros, with Barcelona facing the rest of the file.
