Barcelona Signs €44m Sponsorship Deal with DR Congo
Barcelona Secures Lucrative Sponsorship Deal with DR Congo Tourism Board
Barcelona is on a mission to raise funds in order to comply with La Liga’s 1:1 rule and register new signings for the upcoming season. The club has been actively selling players to meet this financial goal, with the latest development involving a potential sponsorship deal with the tourism board of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Final Stages of Agreement
Recent reports from MD suggest that Barcelona is close to finalizing a sponsorship agreement with the African nation’s tourism board. The deal, which is said to be in its final stages, would see DR Congo’s name featured on the club’s official apparel, specifically on the back of the training kit.
€11m Per Season Deal
The sponsorship agreement is reported to be worth €44 million over a four-season period. This financial boost will greatly assist Barcelona in meeting the requirements of the 1:1 rule, which they aim to achieve by early August. DR Congo has previously entered into a similar deal with AS Monaco, showcasing the growing trend of partnerships between football clubs and international entities.
Focus on Player Sales
While sponsorship deals play a vital role in generating revenue, Barcelona is also continuing to focus on player sales to further bolster their financial position. Key players like Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, Andreas Christensen, and Pau Victor are potential candidates for transfer before the end of the summer window. The pressure is on the sporting director to facilitate these deals in the coming weeks to ensure Barcelona’s financial stability.
