This is honestly such a spectacular shitshow. While simultaneously being an incredible work of financial engineering to manufacture these levers and injections of cash. Likely we will see courts involved, and it would be interesting if the nonpayment results in barca retaking ownership of assets that were "sold" last summer. Effectively renewing a "lever" for them.

With the new FFP rules, there are going to be more stories like these. As Barca fan not really worried, since as you mentioned, if we don't get paid we get to keep the original 20 million and get back ownership
team has world at their feet and is just completely mismanaged. Such a shame to be picking apart the value of the team as they have done
Here we go again
Poor Gundogan. Wonder if he'll be able to play come the start of the season.
I read somewhere he has a special release clause in his contract if he isn't registered by a certain date, so he would probably end up back at Man City (or if someone else wants to snatch him in a free)
That makes sense, and it's probably something all new Barca signings would be smart to include in their contract, and I say that as a Barca fan 😞.
