Barcelona desperately tries to raise money to be able to do their return to the 1: 1 rule of La Liga and to be able to register new signing sessions as such. They have sold players in recent weeks, but more is needed to ensure that Joan Garcia and other possible arrivals can play without problems during the 2025-26 campaign.
In this respect, sponsorship offers are crucial and earlier this week that Barcelona was in conversation with the tourism administration of the Democratic Republic of Congo about a deal that would see the name of the country in the club's official clothing.
And this deal seems to have been sealed now, with MD reporting that an agreement between Barcelona and the Tourism Board of the African Nation is in the final phase.
According to the report, Barcelona would receive a total of € 44 million of the sponsorship agreement, with four seasons. Dr. Congo, who has already signed a similar agreement with the new side of Ansu Fati as Monaco, will be displayed on the back of the club's training kit.
The Sponsorship Avenue is one that Barcelona has not exaggerated in recent months, but it is effective. The money that has been generated from this deal, should it be completed in the coming days/weeks, will certainly help the club's offer to return to the 1: 1 rule that they hope to do at the beginning of August.
The focus is now to continue to generate funds through the sale of players. The will of Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Andreas Christensen and Pau Victor are excellent candidates to leave before the end of the summer transfer window, although an exit is not imminent. The pressure is on Sporting Director to get things done in the coming weeks, otherwise Barcelona can be in a precarious position.
