"Barcelona" is selling various rights or shares for the fourth summer in a row - this time 24.5% of "Barca Studios" shares were sold immediately. For 24.5 shares sold by the club to "Orpheus Media", "Barcelona" received 100 million euros. According to the media, these revenues will help register all new purchases and contracts, and should also allow acquiring Marcos Alonso from "Chelsea". Previously, 25% of "Barca Studios" was also sold. The third time allowed the Catalans to earn 100 million euros as well. Journalist Gerard Romero stated that the fifth sale, which will make it easier for the club financially, will be the sale of Frenkie de Jong. The Dutchman is currently closest to the "Chelsea" club. Meanwhile, "Barcelona" still wants to acquire Bernardo Silva from "Manchester City" this summer. In this transfer window, the club will have to settle, as they failed to acquire Cesaro Azpilicueta from "Chelsea". There was no Plan B in case of failure to acquire a defender.
