Zapping World Eleven PSG: summary of Christophe Galtier’s first press conference
In the process of offering Jules Koundé, FC Barcelona is carrying out a simply exceptional transfer window when it has already succeeded, among others, in bringing in Andreas Christensen, Franck Kessié, Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski. An XXL recruitment explained by the president of La Liga, Javier Tebas:
“Barça gave away 10% of their audiovisual rights for 207 million euros. Then they increased that share to 25%, which I think means around 350 more… That would already be 500 million euros. euros and I think they still have another third lever of another 200. With that and if they release some players, that’s what explains this chance to do this transfer window. They were able to sell assets, which they had to do, and reduce salaries; this is what allows them to sign so many players” he explained in remarks relayed by Sport on the sidelines of the Gala Kick Off.
He then felt that the club was on the right track to be able to register its recruits:
“We’re following them, but when they show us the documentation of the levers and some players they have to sell, we’ll see if they can register everyone. They know what they have to do. I think it’s up to them. there’s still a bit of work to do with everything they have to do, but I think they’re on the right track.”
Tebas warns Barça for de Jong!
Another file mentioned by the Spanish leader, the Frenkie de Jong case, to whom the culé club would have asked to lower his salary. And Tebas was clear: no player should be pressured:
“Players cannot be separated from the team or put under pressure, that’s what the collective agreement, the law, the reason, the mark of ethics says. From there, Barcelona know the rules and responsibilities.
to summarize
