Even if Barca shed FdJ, and activate a 5th “financial lever”, of selling more tv/marketing rights, how do they afford Silva??
They still have 5 new players (Lewandowski, Kounde, Raphinha, Andreas Christensen, Franck Kessie), and 2 players (Dembele and Roberto) on higher earnings to register, before start of season in 10 days.
