Barcelona’s economic vice-president, Javier Faus recently revealed that the club will have a summer spending budget of €50-60 million and room for two to four signings, while also touching on the club’s new Espai Barca project.
In an interview with Catalunya Radio, Faus began by ensuring that the club’s Espai Barca project, which will give a complete makeover to their sporting facilities, will not force the club to mortgage their futures.
“At no time will the project jeopardize the team’s sporting excellence and will not mortgage a generation of Barca.
“One third will be paid by the sponsors (€200 million) while the remaining amount will come from the club’s accounts and a bank loan. A loan, which has been made possible, as the club will be completely debt-free from 2015. The fact that we will be debt-free means that we can go into debt.”
Faus shifted topics and revealed that the club will have a summer transfer budget of €50-60 million, enough for two-to-four signings this summer.
“Economically, we’re able to make two to four signings for next season with an amount an €50-60 million.”
Faus concluded that Barcelona are now the club who sell the most shirts and “for every one shirt Real Madrid sells, Barcelona sell two and a half”.
Don't need to even consider it since Messi has a buy out clause, but no I wouldn't, Sergio is a massive part of our history and an iconic figure for our club, as well as a fucking great player (proven in the PL) in his own right. So, a no from me.Pigeonho said:If we were to lose Aguero - our own legend - but gain Messi in return, who would go for that?

There was a time I would have said the same thing myself, but Ageuro is our legend already. The word legend is overly used for me, look at Balotelli and how people insist he is a legend. Aguero though, he is a City legend and that status will only increase. Messi could come here and simply not adapt to the PL, which would create 2 things: 1, us fucked and 2, proving Ronaldo as the better of the two.GXCity said:Pigeonho said:If we were to lose Aguero - our own legend - but gain Messi in return, who would go for that?
As much as I love Sergio I would personally drive him there myself if it meant we were getting Messi. He is arguably the greatest player to ever walk the Earth.
TCIB said:I would not swap Aguero for any other player on earth, ANY !
The risk is Messi does not fit in here, loses his fire etc etc.
I would love to see him have a bash here but not at the expense of losing Sergio, no chance.
