✅ FC Barcelona are now under LaLiga’s 1:1 rule | OneFootball

FC Barcelona has once again met LaLiga’s 1:1 rule, as the club confirmed following statements by president Javier Tebas. The blaugrana side will be able to operate normally in this summer’s transfer market.

The club had already reached this position in January 2025 thanks to the sale of 475 VIP seats for 100 million euros, a deal that made it possible to register Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor. Subsequent legal disputes between Barça and LaLiga later caused the club to lose that status.

The return to 1:1 is backed by several financial operations: the 14 million still due from the VIP seats, the sale of Ansu Fati to Monaco, and the transfer of Iñaki Peña to Panathinaikos. Robert Lewandowski’s departure also frees up a significant portion of the wage bill.

That margin would allow Barça to register Anthony Gordon without difficulty, while also leaving room for a possible move for Julián Álvarez if Atlético de Madrid decide to sell him.

Christensen’s salary reduction and other expected departures would further strengthen that financial cushion.

The club is aware, however, that this situation could change again next summer, when Camp Nou has to close temporarily for the installation of the roof. The associated loss of income during that period could lead Barça to fall outside the 1:1 rule once again.
