Revealed - How Barcelona have saved over €70m in player sales and salaries so far

Tribuna.com | Transfermarkt | Salaryspot

President Joan Laporta is prudently squeezing out funds for 

The pattern is clear for all to see, Laporta and his team are trimming the wage bill through player sale and loan deals.

Here's an idea of how much Barca have saved this summer so far: 

 - €15m (transfer fee) plus €6m (yearly wage).

 - €8.50m (transfer fee) plus  €597k (yearly wage)

 - €3m (transfer fee) plus €1.7m (yearly wage)

, Barca saves €8m (yearly wage) as Wolves have agreed to pay his salary.

 - potential €5m (transfer fee) plus €9m (yearly wage).

Approximately Barcelona have earned €30m in player sales so far. 

But the Blaugrana could potentially save up to €73.9m when these players wages are put into consideration. 

How Barca reportedly bagged €14m in Alena's transfer to Getafe

, details of the transfer have now been brought to light, as per the reliable Ruben Uria. 

. However, the player earns about €4.5m per year at Barca, which means Laporta managed to save another €9m. 

Alena has reportedly penned a 5-year deal with Getafe, but Barca will earn as much as 50% of any future sale of the player

 will play the 2021/22 season on loan at 

, with the English club also having a buy option. 

Considering that the announcement came out of nowhere, the Blaugrana fans on the Internet had quite a few things to say about the move. It's safe to say that not everyone agrees that the transfer benefits the club, especially in the long term.

ReshadRahman_: "All in all, Trincao to Wolves on loan isn’t a bad deal in my opinion. He was barely going to get playing time under 

 anyways, so it’s a good step for him. Wolves are also taking over his wages, so that’s good for Barcelona and perhaps a slight relief to the wage bill." 

dearatorres: "Do you know how bad of a mess we’d have to be financially to be forced to loan out Trincao just to save ourselves from paying his salary? If there’s some justice in this world Bartomeu will eventually end up in jail to pay for his crimes against our club." 

Edwards007Ryan: "Perfect! He gets valuable minutes and experience to regain his form and confidence. And also Wolves won’t have a mandatory option to buy him. He’s a talent we can’t lose, so hopefully he comes back to Baca straight away. Trincao wants to succeed at Barca. Anyways, good luck!"

 dc608218: "Laporta shipping young players for 

's wages but he won't be here after 2 seasons then we will be missing this player." 

FrenkieMagic: "Considering we have Messi as an undisputed starter, 

 joining the first-team soon and Ilias Akhomach in Juvenil-A; Trincao’s sale was inevitable sooner or later. A good move to reduce almost 8 million euros off the wage bill." 

Qavldr: "I’m so disappointed with this. We should be getting rid of Dembouz. He’s wasted 4 years at Barca and he’s out for 4 months too. I get it’s for his own development but Trincao is a better option on the right wing than Dembele." 

Agyenim Boateng: "Dembele is out for four months, and apart from Messi, Trincao is the only natural winger who can play in the absence of Messi. So what's so special about this transfer?" 

Korez: "Dude has gone to make the most of it. Not a good news but hope to see you again soon. Play well and show the football world what you’re made up of. Defeat the obstacles be serious and let you should be over ur head. Good luck, lad." 

ari_27: "I personally always felt sad for him by not playing but as I said bying a player in Messi's position is the worst mistake ever. Unfortunately, we are not learning. When I hear about other players joining in Messi's position, it makes me laugh and also sad for destroying their career. He is very young and I'm sure he will succeed, but for his growth, it would have been better a bigger club than Wolves. I truly wish him all the best because he is exceptional and he deserves it." 

Ashman Ademola: "It's not really a bad move given that Barca needs to lighten up their wage bill. It's also better for him because the team is already studded with higher-rated attackers than him. He will have enough playing time in Wolves to develop himself. 

 can be deployed on the right wing when the need arises, and 

 occasionally, until Dembele recovers from his injury. Best of luck, Trincao. We hope to see you soon." 

Scar Face: "They left Dembele and loaned Trincao... Laporta is smoking the same weed as Bartomeu." 

Zek: "Shit deal. Trincao wasn't given a proper chance yet he's the only natural right winger in the first team. Still, we all had faith in him since we saw the glimpses of the player he could turn out to be IF trusted and given greater responsibility/guidance. Now, unless the club gives a proper chance to Collado, I'm struggling to see how Trincao's departure benefits the club. Not financially, I'm sure of, particularly at a time when we really need money. And anyway, when is the last time loan deals worked for us? Most of our promising stars lose their shine the moment they leave Catalonia." 

Danklord_Ezio: "Hope he succeeds there with his Portuguese friends. Wolves are a fairly attacking team and he will have 

 down the right-hand side with him. We can either get the amount if he performs well or we might choose to keep him once Lio decides to move on." 

EndureHumanity: "This shows Barca's current situation... Laporta has to make sacrifices to get deals going on." 

xjordi: "Out of nowhere but good business. He is young and promising, needs minutes in a decent team." 

JamieTaylor_Pulseway: "Trincao will never get his time until Messi walks that right winger position." 

eyeowe: "The buy option being so low is actually ridiculously stupid, Trincao will become an absolute baller in a year or two." 

agni39: "This basically confirms that we have to suffer through Dembele for another season."

Bro, I was shocked when I saw it too. Bartomeu almost ruined this club.

Samlex

samuel femi, 

Why almost? He ruin it from inside. The damages this idiot has made will cost us at least 5 years to get out of the hole and fix our finances.

Zemin Markota

bro that's so so crazy...like wtf 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Jay 🔴🔵

imagine former board paying Trincao and Alena 9m yearly wage....that crazy

David Davilis

mommy"s son

Barca earned 30m selling 6 players - what!

even if some were given copa Del rey and few La Liga chances alone, there would be total difference. 

imagine Todibo's yearly wage is not up to 2 weeks of Umtiti's.

with few minutes we could have sold him for 20m and Alena for 30m minimum. and Fernandes won't be Zero.

but some people think we hate a dictator that's why we complain

Tay King

Things are difficult financially for Barça so such risks must be taken.. I’m not happy about Trincao’s exit but it will help him and Barça as well..
