TA: In order to register Garcia and Rashford, some Barcelona executives have taken out their personal property as guarantee

The Athletic's latest weekly column this season, "Barcelona Internal Observation", focused on the team's registration issues. Their concern this week is when Barcelona can successfully register all first-team players and what the club does to register players.

Barcelona's previous primary goal was to register Rashford and Joan Garcia so that the two could catch up with the opening match. With Ter Stegen injured and Szczesny not yet registered, Penia was almost Flick's only option in goalkeeper position before last week. Rashford, after Lewandowski was injured, Flick wanted to replenish the personnel's priority target at the center position.

Fortunately, Garcia and Rashford finally signed up before the match against Mallorca. The club has freed up salary space in a very radical way (but not uncommon for Barcelona): the club has arranged a bank guarantee of 7 million euros, and some senior executives even took out their personal property as insurance.

In solving the registration issue, it is also crucial for Comte to renew his contract with the team until 2030 - which allows Barcelona to extend the amortization cycle of its transfer fees. Coupled with Ter Stegen's long-term injury, Barcelona was able to release some of their salary space for new players to register.

La Liga player registration is on the way to Barcelona to Mallorca, but the club still needs to register Gerald Martin, Badge and Szczesni.

For 19-year-old Badeji, Barcelona hopes to register him directly with the first team. But if it is blocked, he may be registered as a youth training player first. But even so, he can still play for the first team like Martin did before.

Barcelona insiders have stressed throughout the summer that their expectation is that all new players will register successfully. They must complete before the transfer window is closed on September 1, otherwise the relevant players must wait until January next year to play. The club has always emphasized that the key to really getting them in line with the La Liga salary regulations is the 100 million euros gain from the Camp Nou luxury box they sold in December 2024.

However, this fund has not been approved by the auditing agency, and La Liga stipulates that it must pass the review before it can be included in the salary cap. Last week, an insider in Barcelona told The Athletic that the club expects approval this week or next week.
