Barcelona they are in line for a cash boost after the defender's release Sergio Dest at PSV Eindhoven.
Despite concerns over a deal collapsing at the end of last season, the two clubs have agreed a free transfer to release Dest.
PSV Eindhoven is happy that Dest will make a full recovery from knee surgeryand again in 2025, with a contract signed until 2028.
Dest's removal from the wage list is a vital step forward in Barcelona's plan to raise transfer funds and cut their wages.
With PSV opting against activating their €10 million buyout clause on Dest, Barcelona's hands were tied, but they saved around €10 million according to Brand.
This includes €5m in wages for the final year of his Barcelona contract and a potential €4.2m payment to Ajax from their original deal to sign the USA international in 2020.
That money will now be reinvested in contract renewals at Barcelona with Sergi Roberto's contract the next to be resolved.
