This would enable Barcelona to generate the needed found to register their new players – Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, Jules Kounde, Franck Kessie, Andreas Christensen -, and contract renewals – Sergi Roberto and Ousmane Dembele.
The reduction in the salary of Gerard Pique, and possibly Sergio Busquets will also go a long way to get new signings on the registration list for the season opener against Rayo Vallecano.
Barcelona finished 13 points behind Real Madrid last season and they are prepared to go toe to toe with the La Liga Champions for this season’s trophy when the season kicks off on Saturday.
