There were articles a year ago saying Spanish football was spiralling the financial drain.
Barca and Real had had to spread the TV income more equally across all clubs. They had to pull all the levers of future revenues and gamble on success.
They couldn't register players, they were rebuilding their stadium.
They were in decline... I was looking forward to it but so far there seems to be very little problem and always some sneaky solution.

Weren't Spain the only ones to introduce a wage cap of some kind? It must be having some impact as its been causing havoc at Barca, What with them needing to sell and loan out players before they can register new ones etc

Well on one hand it is "causing havoc" and on the other hand they aren't selling their stars and wanted to get Messi back...

They are desperately trying to shift players though, and have been for a couple of windows. The fact that they couldn't fiddle the books to get Messi back or even prevent him leaving despite agreeing to a pay cut means its working somewhat. I agree though, they are still stupid enough to keep wanting shiny new things, Kessie and Raphinha came in and they are already trying to sell them, even though they don't want to go lol
 
Funny to read on net..
Agreement reached with Kane.
2min later another papir RM pull out of the hunt.
Then same time: RM close on star signing from Spurs.

My ITK (brain) say:
Kane all time ledgent sign new 4 years deal at Spurs
 
Whatever the press say the constants with Kane have always been his doubts about having to learn a foreign language and latterly the opportunity to beat shearer's record.

I suspect we may be incredibly lucky and he will see Ange as the kind of person to give him a last chance at silverware with Spurs, if that fails for me it will be MLS when he's 33/34. Then he can indulge his interest in being a kicker for the NFL while also making a pile of cash at a franchise club. Messi will retire in 3 years time and they will need a new super star......

Definitely won't be Madrid or Bayern though, based on language barrier.

Real Madrid and Barcelona's finances are totally different. Real do not have any of the restrictions that Barca do and as noted Barca's problem is due to the relatively new La Liga wage cap. They can actually afford to pay their players etc but fall foul of the wage cap due to the way it is calculated ie. Wages as a percentage of revenue. That is the reason Barca activated the various levers so that there ncome raised enough to fit their existing salaries into it.

Real Madrid do not have any of these issues so can still spend their money fairly freely.

Id rather he not go at all, but if he does go then would much prefer it’s to a Spanish club than a PL club. Fair play if he does stay but you really cannot blame him if he has had enough.

Kane won't be going out to pasture when he's 33/34, he'll still be at the top level banging in 20-30 goals...

I think they're mainly going for the top youngsters now, their midfield is absolutely stacked now with Camavinga, Tchouaemo, Bellingham and then they have Rodrygo and Vinicius upfront.

Can't see them paying the money for older players anymore, they'll wait for Mbappe or find whoever the next new big thing is would be my guess.
