Barcelona unable to register Gavi on a new contract for their first team

Barcelona are facing a new problem in registering their players – with Gavi’s new contract the latest issue. The club doesn’t have the finances to register the youngster on his new deal, with improved wages. 

One would have expected this to not be the case considering Memphis Depay left to join Atletico Madrid. Alongside him, Gerard Pique retired in November which must have freed up more room on the wage bill. But, the club still don’t have the means to go through with it.

Amidst rumours that the teenage sensation might leave through his €50 million release clause, Barcelona were able to extend his contract for the future. A €1 billion release clause was also interested in his deal to prevent other clubs from signing him. 

Although Barcelona are much closer to the 1/1 rule in place in La Liga, they might need to wait until the summer to register their existing players. Ronald Araujo’s new deal is also not officially registered yet, which puts the club in a difficult situation.

Although both players are very committed to the project in place at the club, it would be better to have them fully registered. The inability to register Gavi has also prevented him from taking Xavi’s number 6 shirt, as he currently wears the number 30. 

Considering they don’t have the bandwidth to register their existing players, it seems out of the question that they will be able to get new players. The situation might not change in the summer in terms of arrivals, unless there are some major sales.
