La Liga president Javier Tebas has shared an optimistic view on FC Barcelona’s ongoing player registration hurdles.
FC Barcelona’s preparations for the 2025-26 La Liga season are in full swing, but the club’s ongoing financial constraints continue to cast a shadow over their transfer ambitions.
Under Hansi Flick’s leadership, the Blaugrana are eager to bolster their squad, yet compliance with La Liga’s stringent Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations remains a hurdle.
The club’s efforts to return to the 1:1 FFP rule, which would allow them to spend freely within their revenue, have been complicated by delays in key financial maneuvers, such as the Camp Nou renovation and asset sales.
As fans await clarity on new signings, La Liga’s oversight remains a critical factor.
Speaking at a London event, La Liga president Javier Tebas expressed a calm outlook on Barcelona’s registration issues, stating, “I’m not too worried about Barcelona this season,” as reported by Mundo Deportivo.
. He emphasized that the matter is handled by La Liga’s financial control team, with player registrations publicly listed on the league’s website.
Tebas noted that incomplete documentation or pending approvals could explain delays, such as with goalkeeper Joan Garcia’s registration.
His comments suggest confidence in Barcelona’s ability to navigate their challenges, particularly with the expected €100 million from the Camp Nou VIP seating sale, which is nearing completion and vital for FFP compliance.
Despite Tebas’ optimism, Barcelona’s history with registration issues, exemplified by past struggles with players like Dani Olmo, underscores the complexity of their situation.
The club’s strained relationship with rivals like Athletic Club, who questioned recent registrations, adds external pressure.
Tebas’ remarks also touched on broader La Liga plans, such as a potential match in Miami, though he dismissed speculation about a specific Barcelona fixture.
As Barcelona awaits La Liga’s approval of their revised salary cap in early August, Flick and sporting director Deco remain focused on squad planning.
Tebas’ measured confidence offers hope, but the club must act swiftly to ensure their new signings can take the field seamlessly.
