Euroleague/Club Competition 2019-20: Signings & Rumours - Offseason

[Mr Chacho]

Hopefully you mean Bartomeu. But they are both clowns, so it´s a common mistake. This club is on their way up to the financial collapse, their balance sheet looks absolutely horrible to me. Without La Masia, its a matter of time until the bubble bursts one day.

Yes, sorry. Bertomeu&Bartomeu, confusing. Barça's football team is the team who pays the highest salaries in any sport worldwide.

Florentino is not a fair man, but financially, he is a master. Real Madrid is managed great in the last years.

[Kwijibo]

Bartomeu also signed me for the next season

Although there are no Barca fans here, there would be ones that would claim that hard work and vision took their team to the F4

[Nireus]

Amazing acquisitions from Barca. Davis, Higgins and now Mirotic!

I think it is great to see the quality of players increasing in the Euroleague, even though what Barca is doing is not good for teams that either have financial problems or simply not enough money to compete.

[ZalgirisFanForLife]

It is kind of crazy, what Barca can have on their starting line up and on the bech if the rumors are true:
PG Wanamaker
SG Higgins
SF Abrines
PF Mirotic
C Davies

Bench - Huertel, Kuric, Singleton, Tomic, Claver, Hanga, Ribas
It would be a superteam and it would be very interesting to see such and upgrade in terms of quality. Also, is it realiatic, that Pangos would be OUT and Zalgiris would snach him

and with Pešić on the bench they will again win Copa del Rey..
At best..

it doesn't matter, if the roster you mention will be like that, Barca would win the Euroleague easily .

[Matze20111984]

Unbelievable that Euroleague allows such contracts. In 2017/18 alone, Barcelona mad 27 million € losses with their basketball department. And now they sign someone for this amount of money although they know they cannot refinance him. Getting paid by the football department! Euroleague should not allow such financial operations!

And yes, before everone starts arguing Bayern also has a super successful football department but it is completely separated from Basketball, those are two separate companies (FC Bayern AG (football), FC Bayern Basketball GmbH (Basketball). Basketball has to refinance every € they spend, they do not get anything from the football department and they don't spend more than they have!

[Obina]

Instead of to be happy because we will have one more serious contender, fans are crying on this thread.

Because it is completely against fair competition! Only spending what you have should be the core principal for sport!

[Obina]

They will pay him and that's it. Don't worry it's not from your pocket.

Basketball in Europe is not profitable sport and every team is with deficite at the end.

[Mr Chacho]

Now some journalists speak about 70M per 6 years. That's more or les 6 net M per year, 2 more than Shved.

Obina, Barça plays in a court who is not in the euroleague's standards. In the ACB final, everybody was boiling there. And that offer is out of the european market.

Real Madrid is always the top earner in the european basketball (sponsors, tickets, merchandaising), and we always end losing more or less 10 M. Imagine Barcelona, with more or less the same money (2-3 M less) and way less money earned.

Its actually 6years 79m

[Mr Chacho]

Its actually 6years 79m

They speak in dollars, I do in euros. Here in Spain we use €.

By the way, the most fair and the best financial system is the german's one.

Abrines to Barça, done deal.

[Levenspiel]

Its actually 6years 79m

I've seen that too. Those are crazy numbers especially considering they will not even win the EL

ok maybe they will, I heard Kawhi is checking his options too .
