Barcelona chief asks to "save" club with alarming £426m declaration

Barcelona chief Eduard Romeu has made an alarming declaration claiming that £427million is needed to save the club from the mess they currently find themselves in.

The Spanish side are deep in financial trouble with debts in the region of €1billion (£849.5m). As a result, Barca couldn't afford to offer Lionel Messi a new deal last summer and the Argentine subsequently joined Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer.

Despite securing the signings of Chelsea's Andreas Christensen and AC Milan's Franck Kessie on free transfers, the club are now unable to register the pair due to their salary cap, according to The Athletic.
