World Sports: Whether Barcelona can be approved for registered players depends on player transactions and additional revenue

The Western media "World Sports" reported that whether Barcelona can be approved for registration depends on player transactions and additional revenue.

Since it is the summer transfer window, if Ter Stegen is out for 4 months, the proportion will be 50% instead of 80% (used to register for Joan-Garcia). The proportion will return to 80% if the La Liga Medical Committee confirms that it is absent for 5 months or more.

Also in the past few hours, the club's sponsorship agreement reached with Congo has also been announced, which will bring in 40 million euros in revenue within 4 years.

The current situation is that the salary limit is exceeded and the 1-to-1 state is not reached, and space is needed. This situation has been around since March last year, and it is reported that it does not prohibit Barcelona from registering. Who the club can register in the end will depend on the salary cap space it creates without reaching 1-to-1.

Currently, through Pablo Torre, Baud Victor, Fati or Lenglet, Barcelona has gained about 22 million euros in fair competition. In addition, once La Liga is approved, the Congo agreement will also join in the first year.

The goal of all this is to raise the 100 million euros required to balance the terms of the fair game. La Liga canceled the credit at the end of March, although it had been approved in early January.

All this goes back to the registration of Ormo and Paul Victor late last year. In early January, La Liga approved the operation of the Camp Nou box in the future, and the defense document explained: "On January 3, 2025, after Barcelona proved to have sufficient revenue, the Budget Verification Agency (OVP) increased the cost limit for its sporting rosters for its registered players from that moment. This allowed Barcelona to sign in, so a player registration license can be widely processed from that moment."

La Liga said: "Due to these resolutions of the Budget Verification Agency, Barcelona has a registration balance for the processing of player registration licenses from January 3, 2025 (not before)." Barcelona reached a 1-1 state after La Liga authorized 30 million euros from FORTA SA and another 70 million euros from New Era Visionary and Group Iberia S.L. In the latter case, Barcelona corrected the contradictions in several documents.

But everything changed at the end of March, when La Liga received Barcelona's financial statements and a limited review report as of December 31, 2024. The Barcelona box sales operation is invalid, so La Liga deducted the 100 million euros from the sports lineup cost limit.

This is the background of Barcelona's current operation, but whether the club can obtain La Liga approval to register a player (even if it is not 1-1) is the space it generates through various operations (player trading and additional revenue). In this case, Rashford, Szczesny and Joan-Garcia were involved. For the latter, it will depend on Ter Stegen's injury situation.
