Ed do today's imposed salary caps put further pressure on clubs. I read that Barcelona need to reduce their wage bill by €280 million, is that even achievable?
{Ed002's Note - Barcelona pretty much broke even with transfers this summer they could not add the players they wanted and have huge salary problems so they are asking for players to take significant cuts. They are working hard to get players sold but it is not easy. The Barcelona target is to reduce wage bill and bonuses by €135M a year and then sustain the lower budget. Plan is to sell players in January and the summer and look to removing big earners Messi (€70M) and Antoine Griezmann (€45M) from the bill and start to refine the quad. The Spanish clubs have to work within a budget set against their turnover.

I'm guessing Barcelona are going to have a massive summer then Ed? I dread to think how much Greizman and Coutinho will cost them along with any other additions.
{Ed002's Note - Griezmann has a release clause and they plan changes in the summer but there are quite a lot of players who may well move on.}
