Barca expect to net big money
Posted Friday, September 02, 2011 by Supersport.com
European and Spanish champion Barcelona expects to net nearly 21 million euros ($30 million) in the coming season.
Club spokesman Toni Freixa says the club expects to gross 461.1 million euros over the 2011-12 season against expenditures of about 430.2 million euros, leaving Barcelona a net of 20.9 million euros.
Barcelona members still have to approve the budget figures at a meeting on September 24.
Barcelona trails just Spanish rival Real Madrid as football's biggest moneymaker ahead of Manchester United, according to Deloitte.
Barcelona recently won the Spanish Supercup against Madrid for its 12th major trophy in just over three seasons. The three-time defending Spanish champion started the season with a 5-0 win over Villarreal.
