Neither Lewandowski nor Gündogan, Barca's highest paid earns 37 million a year

"We have reduced debt with LaLiga to 652 million and the sporting wage bill by 172 million. To have 'fair play' we must have positive results and now we will have reduced the wage bill to the levels allowed by LaLiga". In an interview with RAC1, Joan Laporta confirmed the economic effort he has made to significantly reduce FC Barcelona's wage bill.

However, as UEFA's European Club Finance and Investment Landscape Report points out, Barça is still the team in Europe that spends the most on salaries (€639 million), with a worrying ratio of salaries to income, with salaries accounting for 78% of the club's income.
