It was so cool back then... Barcelona bought Dembele + Kubi + grid and lost 300 million, and then negative investment in transfers for many years.

July 27th news A few days ago, Laporta said in an interview that Barcelona will not sign any more players this summer window this year. As of now, their net investment in the summer window is only 4 million euros.

Barcelona is now in a difficult financial situation, which has a lot to do with its operations in the transfer market that year. The transfer difference between Dembele, Coutinho and Griezmann caused Barcelona to lose 300 million euros.

Demberle bought 135 million euros, 50 million euros, Coutinho bought 135 million euros, 20 million euros, Griezmann bought 120 million euros, and 22 million euros, after Barcelona sold Neymar at 220 million euros, they used this money to win Demberlele and Coutinho in the summer and winter windows respectively, but the performance of the two later needs no further description, and it also put a huge burden on Barcelona's finances.

In the seven seasons between the 2018/19 season and the 2024/25 season, Barcelona had five seasons of negative transfer net investment. The most generous time they made during this period was the summer window of 2019/20. At that time, they spent more than 200 million euros to introduce Griezmann and De Jong. The former made Barcelona lose a lot, and the latter's high salary now becomes a burden for Barcelona.
