FC Barcelona are still looking to minimize their expenses and generate funds to conform to their FFP requirements. Selling fringe players and activating some levers has helped the club meet these demands to some extent.
However, the club is also looking at other possible sources to minimize its expenses, particularly wages. Clement Lenglet’s sale can significantly reduce the wage bill of the club, as he is the highest-paid player currently in the squad. Marc Andre Ter Stegen is another player with a high salary at the club.
Negotiations underway for Ter Stegen’s renewal and salary adaptation
According to Jijantes FC, negotiations for the renewal and adaptation of Ter Stegen’s salary with FC Barcelona are already underway. Ter Stegen’s agent, Rene Vom Bruch, met with the club sports management yesterday to initiate these negotiations.
With these negotiations, the German goalkeeper will be renewed and his salary will be adapted to the financial conditions of the club.
Ter Stegen is the second Barcelona captain for the upcoming season, as he has already entered his tenth season for the club. He has been an integral part of the Blaugrana squad, and has been a leader on and off the pitch for the club.
Thus, his renewal will see him remain at the Catalan club for even more years, while his currently high salary will also be adjusted to the current economic needs of the club.
