The collaboration agreement between FC Barcelona and equipment supplier Nike has been approved.
The partnership between FC Barcelona and Nike had long been seen as a possible source of revenue for the club. Despite positive indications on the finalization of this agreement, no final decision had yet been taken. Nevertheless, an important step has been taken: according to RAC1, an online meeting of Barça's board of directors was held last Friday, where members agreed to ratify the verbal agreement between the club and Nike. The Catalan leaders, sure of the outcome of this contract, have already included this agreement in the latest financial report during the general assembly. Thus, this progress indicates that the agreement will soon be formalized.
Large amounts mentioned
Mundo Deportivo indicates that between 2024 and 2028 the current contract will be increased by 48 million euros, while between 2028 and 2038 the increase will be 58 to 60 million more than at present. As a reminder, the former management had established an agreement with Nike valid until 2028, and President Laporta is working to improve it. In addition, a substantial bonus will be granted upon signature, but it cannot be entirely devoted to financial fair play, having to be distributed over the duration of the new agreement. This will nevertheless help to respect the 1:1 rule, and if this agreement is completed before January, it will allow Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor to be registered.
