Barcelona are facing a very busy summer transfer window, especially as they want to give their next manager the best possible opportunity to sign their players ahead of next season.
However, their financial problems continue to be a significant burden, although there is hope that things will be somewhat normal during the summer. Despite this, work must be done to be the case.
According to La Vanguardia (via MD), Barcelona is currently in a deficit of 30 million euros. To be able to return to La Liga's 1/1 transfer rule, they need to make up this margin before the end of the season – at this stage, the club is optimistic of doing this, and being able to balance the books in the process .
A big determinant for Barcelona achieving their goals will depend on how far they go in the Champions League. Reaching the semi-finals, at least, would go a long way to cover their debts, and in the process, will give them a good chance to recruit effectively in the summer.
