"Economically speaking, we do not have a sick patient today. Barça is a gentleman who is at home living a normal life."
"But we have to be careful. We have to keep an eye on sports spending. "Sometimes great sporting successes come with great economic defeats," he added, warning that the wage bill must remain under control to avoid past mistakes."
"There are people who have used this issue purely for electoral purposes. At no point has this board of directors considered selling 49% of BLM. "I don't understand how there are still people who we have already explained this to and who continue to insist on it," he said."
Ferran Olive reaffirmed that Barça Licensing and Merchandising (BLM) is not for sale and that the board has never considered selling any percentage of the merchandising division. The Ordinary General Assembly approved the club's financial statements for the 2024-25 year. The club posted overall losses of €17 million due to extraordinary factors but recorded an ordinary profit of €2 million, with the auditor issuing no reservations. Olive described the club's economic state as stable while warning that sports spending and the wage bill must be controlled to avoid repeating past mistakes. He accused some individuals of using BLM-sale rumours for electoral purposes.
