Barcelona is aiming to return to the 1:1 Financial Fair Play rule before the end of June, a move that would significantly enhance their ability to sign new players and elevate Hansi Flick’s squad. While still working towards this goal, the club is closer than ever.
La Liga president Javier Tebas acknowledged Barcelona’s progress in a recent interview. He stated, “There’s a long way to go until the summer. When you get there, you have to generate income to be able to sign. I don’t know what Barça’s plans are. Laporta is not the president until July 1. I think Barça structure their income statement very well. They have put themselves at the level that a team like FC Barcelona has to be. They are on the right track. Let’s see if they will arrive by June 30. They are in a much better position than when Laporta took over.”
Tebas also commented on Barcelona’s recent complaints to UEFA regarding refereeing decisions during their Champions League quarter-final exit against Atletico Madrid. He remarked, “We have not talked about the refereeing. I always say that they have to improve and aspire to excellence. I always say this to the CTA and the referees. If there are complaints, we have to improve so that there are many fewer errors. I don’t think they are of much use. I understand that they complain, but I am not going to get into it. In La Liga we have the review time that makes the clubs understand the decision to a certain extent.”
