LaLiga Restores Barcelona’s Spending Power, Paves Way for Osimhen Bid
LaLiga CEO Javier Gomez says Barcelona are on track to meet the 1:1 spending rule ahead of the 2026/27 season. He pointed to €70m from VIP boxes, Robert Lewandowski’s departure and a new Camp Nou stand as key revenue boosts. This shift ends years of strict caps that forced the club to activate risky levers like selling broadcasting rights and cutting wages just to register new signings. Under the 1:1 rule, every euro generated through sales or wage reductions can be fully reinvested in incoming players. With their finances back in balance, Barcelona now have the freedom to pursue premium targets. Victor Osimhen of Galatasaray is expected to top their summer list as they seek a world-class striker to replace Lewandowski.
