Barcelona has again sold 24.5 percent of production company Barça Studios, the Catalans announced via a statement on the club site. That industry controls the audiovisual production in Barcelona. With this, the club can add 100 million euros and will receive a financial injection for the fourth time in a short time. As a result, Barcelona seems to be able to register most of the signings in time for the competition at LaLiga.
For a long time, Barcelona appeared to be selling 24.5 percent of Barça Studios to investment fund GDA Luma. A fourth financial injection was supposed to offer Barcelona a solution to register all new signings with LaLiga. However, due to legal and administrative problems, this operation was delayed, as the club already plays its first league game of the season against Rayo Vallecano on Saturday evening at 9 p.m.
Barcelona has therefore started looking for an alternative and has now sold 24.5 percent of Barça Studios to the company Orpheus Media for a sum of 100 million euros. The Catalans have now outsourced 49.5% of the production company. Cadena Cope and transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano expect Barça to be able to register all new signings in a timely manner thanks to the deal with Orpheus media.
Barcelona strengthened itself this summer with Raphinha (58 million euros), Jules Koundé (50 million euros), Robert Lewandowski (45 million euros) and the transfer-free Franck Kessié and Andreas Christensen, who came over from AC Milan and Chelsea respectively. In addition, Sergi Roberto and Ousmane Dembele recently extended their contracts, which means that they are also seen as new players.
