"Barcelona" president claims that the stalled economy due to coronavirus will not affect the club's finances. According to Josep Maria Bartomeu, the club has enough resources to acquire the main targets of the approaching transfer window. According to the media, Barcelona will chase Neymar and Lautaro Martinez. "We are already working on assembling the squad. We hope that it will be capable of competing for all possible titles next season," said the Barcelona boss. "I don't want to name candidates, but we are in a good enough position to sign the players we want. We are the most profitable football club, so we have all the opportunities to invite the players we desire. The club is definitely not in danger. We are currently not receiving income from tickets and broadcasting rights, but we have enough other resources - football academies and the club's museum. It is true that the country's declared state of emergency has mostly affected our club, but we have time to react to the situation and ensure that our financial situation remains stable," Bartomeu told the "Sport" magazine. "Barcelona" will also save money from other sources - due to coronavirus, 70 percent of all players and other staff salaries were reduced.
