"The club's economic area believes that it can structure a strategy to undertake a major investment, provided that certain conditions are met. The key factor is freeing up the financial impact of Lewandowski, whose contribution to the La Liga fair play limit is €40 million. His exit would free up the necessary space in the salary cap to sign a top striker, covering both wages and annual amortisation."
"As per the report, two conditions must be met to make the signing viable. First, Barcelona must return to La Liga's 1:1 spending rule, which would allow the club to reinvest the €40 million freed by Lewandowski's exit. Club sources indicate that Barcelona are already close to meeting the rule, awaiting payment of an instalment related to VIP seats expected in December. Investors 'New Era' are fulfilling their commitments and the club may bring in additional investors if required."
Barcelona plan to sign a new centre-forward as Robert Lewandowski's contract expires at season end. The club explores a top-level striker but faces doubts over financial capability. The economic area believes a major investment can be structured if conditions are met. Freeing Lewandowski's €40 million contribution to the La Liga fair play limit would create the necessary salary-cap space for wages and annual amortisation. Two conditions must be met: returning to La Liga's 1:1 spending rule to reinvest the €40 million and designing a financial structure to support the investment. Projected revenue growth from a fully reopened Spotify Camp Nou and pending instalments from investors place the club close to the threshold.
