IIt has been known for some time that Barcelona they are in a turbulent period from an economic point of view, and the publication of their annual financial report clearly confirms this.
The distinguishing point of the document is where the club’s debts are listed, as they amount 1.173 billion euros, and a short-term debt of approximately 730 million euros.
This figure is broken down as follows: EUR 265 million in debt to credit institutions, EUR 2.5 million in debt and other negotiable securities, EUR 164 million in debt to sports staff and EUR 298 million in other debt.
Barcelona ended the 2019/20 season with a net debt of 488.4 million euros, and the club is negotiating a delay in these payments with its creditors due to the impact that the coronavirus had on its accounts.
The club hopes to be able to delay these payments until at least June 30, 2021, and while some creditors have approved an extension, Barcelona continue to negotiate with others for a deferral of payments.
Another striking detail in the document is the expected revenue from goal receipts, which Barcelona hopes to be able to rely on this season, but at the moment it does not seem feasible in the short term.
Barcelona they expected to earn 56m euros for this campaign, with a capacity of 25 percent in February and 50 percent starting in May, although now it doesn’t seem likely.
