Business acumen? Barcelona unveiled the Brazilian for €9m 29 days ago, now selling him to England for €25m
Barcelona needs money. And now it is close to making a profit on one sale. On his way out is a player who was presented to the fans 29 days ago with the expectation that he would be at the club for a long time.
Barcelona needs money. And now it is close to making a profit on one sale. On his way out is a player who was introduced to the fans 29 days ago with the expectation that he would be at the club for a long time.
Emerson Royal is a 22-year-old Brazilian full-back. He was brought to Europe from his native country by Barcelona, who in turn sold him to Real Betis. That was in 2019.
In the summer, the Catalans pulled the Brazilian footballer back. He was unveiled as a new signing on 2 August. He came for 9 million euros. In La Liga, he even jumped into three competitive matches for Barcelona.
But now he is on his way to England. After less than two months at Barcelona, he will sign for Tottenham Hotspur. The London club will acquire him for 25 million euros.
On his arrival at Camp Nou, club boss Joan Laporta said he hoped Emerson would stay at the club for a long time. This was matched by the fact that there was a €300 million buyout clause in his contract.
The question is how much of a role is played by business acumen or the fact that Barcelona now need money at any cost. What is certain, however, is that this situation makes football fans abroad wonder.
