Barcelona Pursues Legal Action Against Libero Over Unpaid €40m Deal
Barcelona finds itself entangled in another legal battle in 2023, this time against a company they had intended to forge a business alliance with. The controversy centers around an agreement with Libero, where Barcelona was promised 10% of Barca Visions in exchange for much-needed funds to bolster their financial stability and enhance the first-team squad.
However, despite the agreement, Barcelona has yet to receive the agreed-upon funds, creating a significant financial setback for the club. As the deadline for payment has passed without any resolution, Barcelona has decided to take legal action against Libero, seeking to recover the unpaid €40 million.
The urgency behind this legal pursuit is magnified by Barcelona’s strategic plans for the January transfer window, particularly in acquiring a new midfielder. The funds from this deal were intended to play a pivotal role in reinforcing the squad, especially following Gavi’s unfortunate season-ending injury.
The legal proceedings will unfold as Barcelona strives to secure the owed funds promptly, ensuring they can navigate the upcoming transfer window with the financial strength required to address their team needs.
