Red: Clubs in Spain began the season with € 2,6 bn. Debt

 

Vacation is over, it's time for football. Tonight starts the new season in Spain, and the local have already sharpened for matches of "best league in the world."

How good it really is not clear, given that sponsors are disappearing, but at least Transfer rumors will gradually subside to give way to the eternal dispute which among Barca and Real Madrid is greater?

This summer Primera Liga said an official La Liga and Segunda Liga La Liga is 2. At least so said in June the president of the local league Javier TEBAS. His argument then was that no sponsor name in the league will sell better. There is not two months later, to La Liga was added and a "Santander". So the biggest banking group in the euro area as a sponsor replace competitors of BBVA (br - Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Arhentariya, the second largest bank in Spain).

So football business in Spain again going well. Although according to the very TEBAS money now will pay "Santander" are less than what you paid BBVA completed a 3-year contract. According to local media it was a one sponsorship 26 million. Per year, no money for "the best league in the world" as praise La Liga in Spain. It is in this "best" league but clubs that have general sponsor on the shirts are a minority, and to ensure the financial survival of clubs need to introduce centralized sale of television rights to the tournament.

Even clubs like the winner of the Europa League Sevilla and Valencia have a major sponsor on the shirts. "Valencia will not sell below the expected price from us," he said on this subject head of Valles Lai Chun, who is right-handed owner Peter Lim. Strange position given the fact that the club needs every cent. Show him left many players, including sold to Barca Andre Gomes.

Because of the poor performance of the team last season (12th place) financial fair play UEFA says bats have to trim wages they pay 40 mln. Euros. Otherwise, the whole things in La Liga develop positively in the financial plan. Debts of clubs to the local treasury fell from 752 mln. Euros in 2012 to 327 mln. Euros at the end of 2015. A total debts of clubs from the three professional divisions decreased by 3.5 billion. Euros in 2012 to 2.6 bln. euro.

The new trend is to spend less than the revenues which resulted in surplus clubs from 182 mln. Euros. As for the television rights in season 2015/16 centralized their sales poured in club funds total 1,237 billion. Euros. Which is 400 mln. Euros more than what they would receive if the sale was again individually.

In the example Atletico M jumped from 40 to 70 mln. Euro income, and some of the smaller teams like Eibar and Las Palmas already harvested 28 million. Per year, more than twice before. Barcelona and Real Madrid did remain 140 million. Per year, which for now will not make the difference between small and grandees even greater
