Laporta himself described Barca as "clinically dead" last year, with gross debt totalling €1. 3 billion. As recently as June, he said the club was still in intensive care. Less than a month later, he was signing Lewandowski for €45m and declaring the club to be "out of the hospital, " prompting Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann to wonder out loud: "The only club that has no money but buys every player they want.
The Blaugrana have also not yet registered the new contracts signed by Ousmane Dembele or Sergi Roberto, either. Therefore, these seven players are currently not eligible to play for Barca, despite featuring in the preseason. What do they need to do to register players? After selling 24. 5% of Barca Studios to Orpheus Media on Friday, Barca hope it's now just a case of the documentation being reviewed by the league and the paperwork being processed to register everyone.
(For example, less salary space is required to register Christensen than Lewandowski. ) Barca would rather not go down the route of appearing to prioritise registrations if they can avoid it. Which players are impacted? With just one day until Barca host Rayo Vallecano at Camp Nou in their first game of the season, none of the five summer signings -- Lewandowski, Raphinha, Christensen, Kounde or Kessie -- has been registered with the league.
Meanwhile, Sánchez Flores is sweating on the fitness of Jaime Seoane, Portu, Nemanja Maksimovic and Mauro Arambarri. “We’ll wait until tomorrow [Saturday] to see which players can be included in the squad, ” the Getafe boss said. Who is the referee? The match referee at the Coliseum will be Antonio Mateu Lahoz. He will be assisted by Pau Cebrián and Rubén Porras, while the fourth official will be Daniel Palencia. The video assistant referee will be David Medié Jiménez. Full screenAntonio Mateu Lahoz will be the referee.
Getting €85m in transfer fees for the Dutch midfielder would solve a lot of their problems, but sources say he remains intent on staying put. This is all a repeat of last summer, too, when Pique, Busquets and Jordi Alba adjusted their salaries to enable the registrations of Memphis, Eric Garcia and Sergio Aguero. It's worth noting that last summer, the solution arrived just as late. Pique's adjustment allowed Barcelona to register Garcia and Memphis on Saturday, Aug. 14 -- just 24 hours before their first game of the campaign, which was a 4-2 win over Real Sociedad. Yet it took until the day before the end of the summer transfer window for Alba and Busquets' reductions to kick in so the club could confirm Aguero's registration with the league. What is their timeline for doing so? Any deadlines? Technically, Barca have until the end of the transfer window (Aug. 31) to register players with LaLiga, but Saturday's first game of the season is a date marked in red.

Getafe vs. Atletico Madrid - Football Match Report - August 15, 2022 - ESPNAtletico Madrid forward Alvaro Morata made a triumphant return to LaLiga as he scored twice to help the visitors win 3-0 at Getafe in their opening match of the season on Monday. Substitute Antoine Griezmann scored the third goal late on and Atletico had enough chances to make the result even more comprehensive under the scorching heat. - La Liga on ESPN+: Stream LIVE games and replays (U. S. only)Their inspired Portugal forward Joao Felix roamed all over the field and collected three assists. He slipped a precise pass through for Morata, who drilled a perfectly placed shot from the edge of the box into the bottom left-hand corner of the net after 15 minutes. Just before the hour, Felix found Morata inside the area by the far post and the Spaniard, back at Atletico after a two-year loan spell at Juventus, fired the ball into the top corner.
I do not know how. It's kind of crazy. "The source of Barca's spending is not difficult to understand. In selling off 25% of their domestic television rights to the investment firm Sixth Street for 25 years and 49% of Barca Studios, their in-house production company, to Socios. com and Orpheus Media, they have raised over €700m. They have also recently signed a new sponsorship deal with Spotify, and last year, the club took out a €500m loan from Goldman Sachs to spread out their debt repayments. The money, therefore, is there, even if it does come at a cost in terms of reduced revenue in the future and growing long-term debts, but finding the cash this summer was not Barca's biggest problem. As was the case when Lionel Messi left last year, the problem is registering new players within LaLiga's financial fair play rules.
Getafe vs Real Madrid: team newsFor Real Madrid, the major team news is that Karim Benzema is not in the squad. Having returned from a three-week injury layoff against Osasuna, the striker also played in the midweek Champions League win over Shakhtar Donetsk, but has been left out of Saturday’s clash with apparent muscle fatigue. “Benzema has played two 90 minutes in a row after a month out and today he’s still tight, ” Madrid head coach Ancelotti told reporters on Friday. Injured pair Dani Ceballos and Thibaut Courtois both also miss out.
The sale of television rights (which gives up an estimated 5% of the club's annual revenue at around €40m, based on the most recent figures) was done in two packages, with each one dubbed a "financial lever" by Laporta. The sale of 24. 5% of Barca Studios to Socios. com was the third lever. Now, a fourth lever has been pulled, something Laporta had previously said he hoped would not be necessary. However, some sources suggest that still might not be enough and the club could still come up just short in terms of registering everyone. Therefore, the club continue to work on outgoings -- Samuel Umtiti, Martin Braithwaite and Memphis Depay have all been advised to find new clubs -- and wage reductions. Talks are ongoing with Gerard Pique and Sergio Busquets, among others, to find a solution. Pique, at this stage, is the most likely to adjust his salaryThe club have also said publicly that midfielder Frenkie de Jong, the subject of interest from Manchester United and Chelsea, needs to reduce his salary if he does not leave the club.
In the 75th minute, Felix teed up Griezmann and the French striker drilled a fine shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the box to wrap up the points. "I'm very happy to be back here and because it's always good to start the season on the right foot with a win in a very difficult stadium to play in like Getafe, " Morata said after the match. "I love playing for Atletico, I'm here to leave everything on the field, to work hard and compete. "I'm confident we have a very strong group that will fight for everything we play for. "Atletico displayed a solid team performance, suffocating Getafe with relentless high pressure and keeping goalkeeper Jan Oblak's area clear of threats for most of the match. New signing Axel Witsel had an outstanding game in the middle of Atletico's five-man defence, doing a superb job in shackling former Real Madrid and AS Roma forward Borja Mayoral, who barely touched the ball.
