Més Que Un Debt?
By Eric Beard, writing from Boston
According to the BBC, Barcelona’s debt is 442 million euros (£369.5m) after a loss of more than 77m euros (£64.36m) last season. The club’s costs in the 2009-10 season rose to £400m, with their income at £341.7m.
Operating costs of £400m? To run a football club? As they say, Barcelona is Més Que Un Club, or more than club. But even so, this appears to be more than your average debt.
I was thinking of their debts the other day, and how they are trying to get players from everywhere [and how much money will be involved]. I think they are a great team AS IT IS and the acquisition of new players is just to point out that they are the best team out there. Just saying.

I’m not sure about breaking even, but it would put a serious dent in their debt. Not to mention Rosell getting off on...
