FC Barcelona are currently at a point where housing extravagant salaries for top players is no longer feasible for the Catalan club given their ongoing financial problems and their consistent attempts at stabilising them.
As a result, they have attempted to sign the top players on conditions that would see them lower their demands relative to their previous salaries so that Barcelona can financially facilitate their arrivals.
Moreover, even as they negotiate with future signings, Barcelona have kept these conditions consistent and it seems they have been applied yet again to the most recent of negotiations conducted by Barcelona.
As per Spanish journalist Gerard Romero, FC Barcelona have agreed a salary of €6 million with 29-year-old Portuguese star and Manchester City right-back Joao Cancelo in their recent agreement.
The Portuguese star and FC Barcelona reached an agreement on personal terms just recently as per Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, with the legitimacy of the operation now very convincing given the quantity and reliability of reports that have emerged.
If Romero’s report is proven to be accurate, Barcelona have managed to agree a very favorable salary for arguably one of the best fullbacks in the current scheme of European football despite his rough patches in recent times.
According to Romano, FC Barcelona will now proceed to negotiate with English Premier League outfit Manchester City, who Cancelo is contracted to until 2027, to figure out the structure of a possible deal to bring the Portuguese star over to Catalonia.
