Apparently £1.15 billion in debt with a wage bill that accounts for 103% of the clubs total income.
If they had kept Messi that would have taken it up to 110% of income.
This is just the age bill so they have the other costs of running the club on top of that |  |

They need a lot of work done on their crumbling stadium as well. Years of poor management and complacency. They'll be desperate for the European Super League |  | | |

So Barcelona was valued by Forbes to be worth a few months ago at $4bn. But they have a debt of $1.3bn.
Saints is worth perhaps £200-£220m but has debts of c.£100m.
I’d argue that we are in a far worse and more perilous position than Barcelona. [Post edited 17 Aug 2021 10:54]

I may have got this wrong, but aren’t both Barcelona and Real Madrid underwritten by the Spanish government in some way? |  | | |

We've been playing 70k per week to the likes of Carrillo, Lemina, Elyuseless, Hoedt, etc to play for other teams which isn't exactly peanuts. |  |

The debt we have is declining as we run in the green, we only have debt due to covid, Barca have debt cause they gave all the money in the world to Messi and co to keep being a title challanger and in euro cups, Covid only cost them around 42 million according to reports, they hardly noticed, yet they are still losing millions a month on other sources, they are still running in the red. | | | |

For some reason I thought that both or either Barca and Real Madrid were part funded by the government but it appears that both are owned by the fans. | | | |

A few years back, Madrid were massively in debt and sold their training ground to the Madrid Council. In return they were gifted a new training ground, and with the money left over, bought Zidane. There have long been accusations that Franco favoured Madrid and they received preferential treatment, whereas Barca were were not even allowed to speak their own language, but I think the reputation Barca may have once had has long gone | | | |

I thought Madrid had ties to their royal family and Barca were closer (coughs) to being fan owned?
Probably wrong mind and i would gladly see them both fold but will never happen. |  |

I have no sympathy...A world class footballer should be earning no more than 20k a week. a 15 year career would see them earn 15mil..Retiring in your early 30s with that amount of money is about right for the level of talent / entertainment they’ve provided over that time in my opinion.
The bubble has to burst at some point. These kids on 150k a week, who don’t give shÃŽt about football as all they want to do is drive exotic cars, fûck as many exotic women as they can while pretending to be some gangsta yardie.
We’ve seen it here... | |

Barca and Real Madrid have been at the forefront of European football wage inflation for decades. It's about time FIFA or EUEFA pulled them up for their dodgy financing deals. |  |

Carrillo has to be the biggest waste of money the club has ever spent. |  | | |
