Barcelona has sold off even more of its club assets in the hopes of meeting the Spanish league's financial rules so Robert Lewandowski and its other signings can play in the season opener.
Barcelona said Friday that it had agreed to sell 24.5% of its Barca Studios production hub to Orpheus Media in a deal that would earn it 100 million euros .Last month Barcelona sold an initial 25% stake in its production hub to Socios.com, a blockchain provider, for another 100 million euros as well as 25% of its Spanish league television rights for the next 25 years for nearly 670 million euros .
It also comes with Barcelona yet to register its new signings with the Spanish league. Barcelona opens the season on Saturday at home against Rayo Vallecano. So, as of Friday morning, it had not registered Lewandowski, Raphinha, Kounde, free agent arrivals Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen, or Ousmane Dembele and Sergi Roberto, who both signed new contracts recently after their old ones had expired and so are considered new signings by the league.
Teams have until the end of the month to register new players if they want to play in the Spanish league this season. Real Betis is also still waiting to register several players.
