Earlier today, FCBarcelonaofficially announced the departure of winger Ousmane Dembele to PSGin a Ԁєɑł worth €50.4 million.
As per the terms of a previous agreement between the club and the player, the Frenchman will receive €15 million from the total fee, with theremaining €35.4 million going into the Blaugrana’s coffers.
Now,Catalunya Radiohas come up with details about the implications that Dembele’s exit will have on Barcelona’s Financial Fair Play situation.
Considering that it was previously ɾєρօɾτed that the transfer fee would be equally split between the player and the club, the fact thatBarçareceived €10 million more is a happy boost.
Now, the ɾєρօɾτ claims thatBarcelonawill have a Fair Play margin worth up to €26.2 million freed up following the departure of the French winger.
Breaking up the figure, theBlaugranacan utilise 60% of the winger’s salary, which comes up to €13.8 million, and 35% of the fee received for him, which would be €12.4 million, taking the total to €26.2 million.
This, coupled with the €9 million margin opened up from Franck Kessie’s exit, and the €60 million freed up from theBarçaVision Ԁєɑł, creates enough room forBarcelonato register all the players signed and renewed.
The La Liga champions have already completed the registrations of Ronald Araujo and Ilkay Gundogan, with more players expected to be added to the list in the coming hours.
It should also leave some room for any new players that arrive and more margin could be freed up if the club can offload Sergino Dest and Clement Lenglet are sold.
