Barcelona won’t return to 1:1 rule even if they sell Chelsea-linked star – reportChelsea targets Barcelona’s Fermin Lopez, a move potentially easing Barça’s financial woes. However, even a substantial fee won’t fully restore Barcelona to La Liga’s 1:1 spending rule due to pending approvals on key revenue streams. While a sale aids short-term needs like player registrations, it won’t solve the underlying financial gap. Barcelona continues exploring short-term solutions like contract terminations and guarantees.
