    Can't register their new signings for La Liga, and can't register a couple of players who signed new contracts.

    Thread explains it better than me but they're on the verge of selling close to half of their commercial rights to fund their flurry of transfer activity, where they're spending hundreds of millions on new players even though they owe the current players millions in unpaid wages.

    It's all beyond a joke. I have no idea how they are getting away with it. Asking long standing players to take pay cuts to save money to register new players they are spending 60 million on like raphina from Leeds etc. It's ridiculous.

    I don't get how the Barnsley F.C board are getting away with selling players and running the club through season ticket sales without spending a penny of their own money.

    That's football.

    They're absolutely batsh!t. In all this financial mess and then chasing 32-33 year olds on big contracts (plus fee in Lewa case), and selling youngsters like Riqui Puig. Well down the line with Marcos Alonso now as well when they already have Alba! Worst run club in the world the last few years.

    Isn’t it Barcelona who told Man U that to sign a player they had to pay the outstanding wages owed. United refused so they told player wouldn’t allow to leave unless they did?
