Barcelona dominates the transfer game, this summer, until now...

The "Blaugranas" dominates the transfer market. It doesn't matter if the big debt she has been carrying for a long time

Barcelona dominates the transfer market. It doesn't matter if the big debt she has been carrying for a long time continues to torment her and create various problems for her. Its president, Joan Laporta is making great efforts to reduce the heavy debt and with various other actions to be able to manage the name of the great club as best as possible. Whichever way you look at it, it sells a lot. So Laporta with some clever manipulations managed to sell shares of the television rights of Barcelona (25%) and Barca Studios (25%) for the next 10 years!!

Barcelona,on the other hand, chose to move very "aggressively" in this year's summer transfer "bazaar". The goal of Xavi and of course the administration is to strengthen its soul potential, so that it can enter strongly again in the big game of claiming LaLiga and star in or even conquer the new Champions League.

Despite the fact that their finances are very "squeezed", they are so far the team that has spent the most money (153 million Euros) of any other in Europe, acquiring what interests them and believes that it will strengthen them to a great extent. Leaving far behind her in the relevant list her "eternal" rival, Real Madrid., but of course also the English ones, Manchester City, Liverpool, Manchester United, the French Paris Saint-Germain, and even the particularly ambitious this year, Bayern Munich...
