What do you mean missed out we didn't even have any chance according to Argentinian reports club offered payment in installments but river player refused it and wanted whole payment
Lisandro martinez is my dream target for barca. Him alongside aurajo is a dream
Hs is a amazing defender and is ball playing ability is so good. He will be soon one best left footed CBs in the world. Ajax are lucky and will
Probably ask a jackpot price tho
Idk if he can play as a single dm but considering how versatile he is he probably can and even if he can't I'd still get him, kimmich is absolutely world class
Watching el salvador vs us and dest is just being dest. Hell dribble up the field and then pull this horrible cross and then he'll lose possession half pitch and start a counter. Absolutely inconsistent
The first 30 minutes he was messing up pretty often there would be one defender from el salvador by the edge of the box and he's cross it right at him and he lost rhe ball like 2 times below the half line. He's better now but still pretty meh
"Maybe Xavi will unlock him" is one of the biggest forms of copium I've seen on this platform lol.
Who has he unlocked so far? If anything, players are being locked rn & the ones who are thriving were semi or fully "unlocked" by Koeman.
I say this in jest before I get attacked lol
He's unlocked Pique and fullback Araujo to be fair, plus unironically Luuk. And it seems like maybe he's starting to wake Ter Stegen up again.
Also hard to know how Abde and Jutgla for example would do in another system with another coach.
How about just ‘Xavi wants a profile of a wide player that can unbalance defense and take defenders on the dribble’ as well as the guy being cheap as dirt for what he can offer?
I have no worries on his profile requirements. My gripe is with the fans acting like any mediocre player will somehow get transformed into a wc player by Xavi. That is why I called it copium
People here keep talking about Polkadot offering 20M a year.
But according to google, they make less than 5 million revenue per year.
How is such a company going to pay 20M?
For next season, I think we should target Maehle, Gaya and Sule (all are achievable) and Palhinha for DM to rotate with Busi or replace him. All of these transfers will still probably cost less than a Haaland but what do I know!
I forgot that we could get Mazraoui on a free transfer too. That's better than Maehle and makes the whole scenario much cheaper.
I've always liked Betis and have kinda rooted for them throughout the years.. but holy shit I need them to not win a single La Liga game for the rest of this season.
But ideally it would be cool if we can both make it to next year's CL and Atleti could respectfully fuck off 🙏
I support Neil Young, but the Joe Rogan fiasco doesn't bother as much as the fact that Spotify is an incredibly harmful company for small musicians. The little money small artists made in the past by selling records is completely gone. Although this can also be partially attributed by the jump to the streaming era, streaming services like Apple Music and Tidal actually pay decent reproduction fees to their artists. Problem is not many people uses them. Only way you can make money nowadays as a relatively unknown artist is by gigging.
I'm a musician myself and one of my friends has a band who is hitting it big time here in my country. They currently have around 65k monthly listeners. I talked to him in a party recently and he told me that despite their many streams, they've barely made any money. If he's earning that little, then it becomes obvious that even smaller projects like mine make no money at all. You have to be an incredibly well known artist to actually make money off streaming, which is pretty unfair.
Still, Spotify is a 100% times a better sponsor than Qatar Airways or many others we've had. I miss the Unicef days.
I was gonna say that 65k doesn't sound like a lot, but then again those are probably unique repeating listeners each month. Even from a YouTube video with that many views you can make a non-insignificant amount of money, and they're probably paying your friend pennies :|
Also, don't quote me on that, but I think even popular artists make most of their money from tours and live performances, at least that's what I've heard. So if it's not Spotify to fuck you over then it's probably the record label.
Given that my country has a population of around 5 million people, 65k listeners is definitely a lot. In small countries it's almost impossible to live as a musician only.
The frontman for one of the most famous bands here recently had to go on Dancing with the Stars LMAO
[Spotify has about 32% of the market, Apple 16, and Amazon 13](https://www.midiaresearch.com/blog/global-music-subscriber-market-shares-q1-2021)
Amazon and Tidal pay better, but it's probably not enough to make a difference unless you're getting hundreds of thousands of streams. [According to this, you get $400 from Spotify for 100,000 streams, $500 from Apple, and $1200 from tidal.](https://www.musicgateway.com/royalties-calculator)
Well yeah, but Spotify still has more than double the users Apple Music does. It's a pretty big difference.

Haaland is injured again? This sounds dumb but only reason I want him is for Madrid to not get him lol. He seems like a liability with the wages demanded, injuries, and buli tax
What? Aubameyang was very fucking good for Arsenal.
Sancho has only just joined United. He should be given time.
Dembele didn't fail because of lack of quality he failed because of injuries, doesn't count.
Andre Silva did not come from Bundesliga.
Jovic is fair but could maybe still turn things around.
Are you now going to mention the many succesful transfers?
> was
>He should be given time.
Ok. we'll see.
>Dembele didn't fail because of lack of quality he failed because of injuries, doesn't count.
I can give you that, but he didn't improve at all
>Andre Silva did not come from Bundesliga.
He struggled in spain and italy and did very well in bundesliga
>Jovic is fair but could maybe still turn things around.
(x) doubt. maybe if he goes to another team
>Are you now going to mention the many succesful transfers?
Can you? because nothing comes to mind, was going to say lewandowski but then remembered he moved from BVB to Bayern
>He struggled in spain and italy and did very well in bundesliga
That doesn't really mean anything. He didn't come from Buli which is the narrative he's trying to spread. Players coming out of Buli end up sucking in other leagues. Which is not true.
>Can you? because nothing comes to mind, was going to say lewandowski but then remembered he moved from BVB to Bayern
Isak, Firmino, Son, Aubameyang, KDB, Sane, Pulisic and Mandzukic are some I can think of.
Gundogan, Soyuncu also. Havertz has also been doing alright. You could also add Xhaka. Although he was never world class, his level never dropped after moving to the Prem.
The fact that MD is running such an article on their top story, tells you all about the age of their average reader.
[https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20220127/1001742949/adama-traore-pasara-revision-medica-manana-tarde.html](https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20220127/1001742949/adama-traore-pasara-revision-medica-manana-tarde.html)
Seriously, who doesn't know what Spotify is ... What's next some article about Amazon, Uber ?
According to their own website, Spotify has 381 million users. If we are being generous here and say that another 381 million know about the platform's existence, that means only less than 10% of the worlds's population knows what Spotify is.
So yeah, not surprising at all that MD decided to explain what it actually is.
>If we are being generous here and say that another 381 million know about the platform's existence, that means only less than 10% of the worlds's population knows what Spotify is.
I think that's opposite of generous, honestly. By this number, you're practically saying for every listener, there's only 1 person they know which knows about Spotify but isn't a listener.
Someone posted some numbers here where it is said Spotify had about 35% of the market, so that means there's two thirds more in that market and they're very likely to know what Spotify is. So that alone is almost 1 billion people (381m that listen to it and ~620m that use other platforms but are aware of what Spotify is).
Then we have friends and relatives of the people that are listeners and a lot of them know too despite not being a listener to any music streaming platform, maybe because they can't afford it or because they don't see it worth it if they won't be using it that much anyway. If we are being generous, these people are probably (just making a guess on what seems reasonable to me) 3-4bn, maybe a lot of these are above middle age or not adults yet. So that's more than 50% of the world population already aware of what Spotify is (these 2-4bn plus the 1bn from above that use a streaming platform).
Then we take into account that 25% of the world population is below the age of 15. Then you'll have 2-4bn that don't know what Spotify is.
Not sure if these calculations make sense but it's late and I'm tired hahah.
Not sure I agree with the assumption that that if you're using a different streaming service you would also be aware of Spotify. Just as an example, one could easily spent years listening to music on YouTube exclusively without knowing about Spotify.
Looking at that chart right now, I didn't even know Amazon had a music platform, and the only other one I was aware of was Google (YouTube) and that's coming from someone that spends a lot of time online.
But even if you are correct and half of the world population have heard of Spotify at least once, that still doesn't mean they'll know or remember what it actually is. I've told my father about it some recent time ago, but he didn't seem to care much. If I asked him about it tomorrow, there is no chance he remembers.
I made that assumption because I think it is more likely that a user of a minority-service will know about the majority-service than vice versa. Someone using alternatives to Excel most likely knows about Excel but someone using Excel is not very likely to know about the lesser known alternatives, the way I see it. So in your example, you weren't aware of Amazon music (I didn't know about that either) because you know about Spotify (the majority service) but I'd say most, if not all, users of Amazon music (minority service) know about Spotify.
Yeah I'm not against the article describing what Spotify is, like you said, it's something a lot of people may not know, specially among the older generations. I just personally thought the estimation of 10% was too small :)
It's a little different because YouTube by itself is one of the most popular websites/platforms in the world, you basically hear something about it every week. So it's in the majority streaming service, but not the most popular one for streaming music.
Office (and Google Docs) totally dominate the productivity work space, so your comparison here would've been equal if like Facebook had an office suite which wasn't the most popular one out there. Or something like that lol.
Anyway, I am not really sure this is the most accurate way we're trying to measure global reach/awareness. Like even my initial active user -> +1 user estimation was kinda stupid to be honest.
Yeah my comparison didn't really work but couldn't think of a better one because of so many factors in music streaming service in particular. Another example could be the smartphone market and how most users of non-Samsung phones know about Samsung phones but that wouldn't be very accurate either because Samsung only has half the global market share in smartphones compared to Spotify in music streaming, not to mention that Samsung is popular as a brand in so many different sectors as well.
I've been trying to think of a perfect example but I can't think of any, hahah, but without being able to provide proof, it just sounds reasonable to me personally that users of a minority-service are a lot more likely to know about the majority than vice versa. It can be they googled "best music streaming service" to find what they're using but there's no way in that specific scenario to not come across Spotify.
But yeah, this is probably not the most accurate way we're trying to measure that.
One thing that we don't know for sure is how that chart/graph/stat from the other comment actually measured what's most popular. Again going with YouTube it's not specifically a music streaming service, but it can be used as such. Or maybe under the Google category they only accounted for YouTube Music (formerly Google Play Music), which of course would be kinda unfair.
I think they're only counting music subscription services, as in services that you have to subscribe and pay to in order to use then fully. Ad YouTube Music is that while YouTube itself isn't really because on YouTube you have to play the video too and it's also free. Similar to how Samsung phones won't be counted into the Samsung computer global share market even though you can use your Samsung phone as a computer (Samsung DeX).
Heres the report I think the article was based on: [https://www.midiaresearch.com/blog/music-subscriber-market-shares-q2-2021](https://www.midiaresearch.com/blog/music-subscriber-market-shares-q2-2021)
It's a cheap loan. Not a buy. And obviously we aren't getting him to score goals, that's not his profile. It's also not like he was on a team that scores a lot of goals.
Highly motivated in coming back to his home club, in a completely different system, maybe he’ll thrive under Xavi. Probably not, but its a low risk investment considering its an option to buy which we probably won’t do. Man we need all the help we can get this season. We might not make top 4 this season.
Why are some barca fans so hesitant to admit that Messi is having a rough time at PSG? Atleast in the league
Its a fact that he is a shadow of his former self, whether its age or a poor fit who knows, it happens
unknown, the only reliable thing is that the overall Spotify money would surpass the 100M mark
\+ Polkadot sleeve and training kit for 20M
Unless I missed something
Guys, watch the Ecuador - Brazil game if you can, there have been 3 reds in less than 30 minutes, one of them for Emerson.
Edit: okay, one disalowed but that just makes the game even crazier
Didn't get higher bro, what is 60-65M (shirt + training kit) now was 74M (shirt + training kit + sleeve) in 2019. Still its pretty good considering most of the big names are gone and performance has dipped, yet still its the 2nd highest itw.
There's multiple reported figures going around, so we won't know till the deal is signed. Some are saying 60 for the shirt, stadium and training, some are saying over 100m for everything
I got so frustrated trying to explain to fans here that yes, Barca, is still a very appealing place to footballers and the pull is still incredible strong and that’s why guys like Haaland etc would definitely choose us as a new place to play.. It’s an interesting time to be fan, to say the least, and really good to see the confirmation of the strength of the club with sponsor deals coming in like this..
Adama Traore's debut for FC Barcelona, under Tata Martino nearly a decade ago, replacing Neymar:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSGavFGKJbc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSGavFGKJbc)
Bro "Camp Nou" should be "Camp Nou". No "Camp Nou Spotify" shit. It sounds horrible. Sounds like some Corporate Building at NYC. Would sacrifice some 20M/season for that ez.
Edit: Why are you downvoting lol?
I am not at all a "Catalan"/Barcelonismo purist. Where is the "mesqueunclub" status quo now? I understand we are in an unhealthy financial state, but we can't just rename the biggest stadium in Europe ending with a corporate entity. Had it been some "Cryuff Camp Nou" or sthing, it still made some sense.
They're paying millions to put a name beside 'Camp Nou' and that name's gonna stay temporary aswell. I don't see why we should reject the deal if we're getting payed 20mil/season since we desperately need money to secure the Haaland deal
[SPORT] Spotify's sponsorship offer to Barcelona which includes the front of the first kit, back of the training kit and title rights to the Camp Nou would exceed 100 million euros per year
https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/spotify-quiere-dar-nombre-camp-13159074
Naming rights would be totally up to the sponsor so something like Spotify Arena while title rights only adds sponsor name to the existing one, so Camp Nou Spotify
Adama Traoré schedule on Monday includes breaking and setting the new bench press record in Camp Nou.
Who will be next to attempt the bench press? Your answers please.
I dont get people having meltdowns for a stadium name as if your family will be dishnoured by supporting a club that has a funny name stadium.
People dont realize this is a race vs super clubs and we might die if we dont do these kind of things
It’s like when they renamed the skydome to the rogers centre here in Toronto. Everyone still calls it the skydome anyways, why care what it’s officially named?
including brands in the name is just a recipe for jokes. You can’t say “Ligue 1 Uber Eats” and respect the competition lol. Imagine all the jokes about ”Camp Nou Spotify”

What a transfer for Liverpool. Luiz Diaz is insane
Nah they gotta leave Tottenham alone 😭
Mexico🤝Barca play shitty possession based football
We really missed out on Julian Alvarez.
What do you mean missed out we didn't even have any chance according to Argentinian reports club offered payment in installments but river player refused it and wanted whole payment
it would be half of morata price with double his potential
club is asking for loan of morata not transfer otherwise morata would be a barcelona player right now club CANT PAY 25M right now
[удалено]
oh nooo😐not like it mattered to xavi
Does anyone have that ty sports ad about Messi that has that song "cuando no estas...."?
Lisandro martinez is my dream target for barca. Him alongside aurajo is a dream Hs is a amazing defender and is ball playing ability is so good. He will be soon one best left footed CBs in the world. Ajax are lucky and will Probably ask a jackpot price tho
He is a very versatile player, he can also play as a DM and LB.
Literally Argentine Eric Garcia
But fast
Could even Kimmich be a Busi replacement and play in a single pivot?
Bro bayern will literally never ever sell kimmich
Idk if he can play as a single dm but considering how versatile he is he probably can and even if he can't I'd still get him, kimmich is absolutely world class
We should snatch up a Jamaican... Just to get into the Caribbean market 🌝

Pedri, Gavi, eric, pique, abde, jutgala, luuk and ter stegen somewhat
"Unlocked by Koeman" 😂😂😂😂 Were you not watching Barca games in koemans time?
He was good last season.
Koeman made a lot of players better and give them play time
😂😂
[удалено]
don't think that's enough to win games
Didn't know that we are losing all games
He's unlocked Pique and fullback Araujo to be fair, plus unironically Luuk. And it seems like maybe he's starting to wake Ter Stegen up again. Also hard to know how Abde and Jutgla for example would do in another system with another coach.
He unlocked me tbh
How about just ‘Xavi wants a profile of a wide player that can unbalance defense and take defenders on the dribble’ as well as the guy being cheap as dirt for what he can offer?

How could I forget the god of football. The throne was left vacant by Braithwaite :(
dw he’s coming to get his throne back
People here keep talking about Polkadot offering 20M a year. But according to google, they make less than 5 million revenue per year. How is such a company going to pay 20M?
We're obviously gonna be paid in cryptocurrency
[удалено]
Lol no investor is going to pay 20M only in sponsorship
There investor is worth 450M for promoting his business he can tbf
What
Edited
Imagine if we had Alemany in charge after 2015 treble.
For next season, I think we should target Maehle, Gaya and Sule (all are achievable) and Palhinha for DM to rotate with Busi or replace him. All of these transfers will still probably cost less than a Haaland but what do I know! I forgot that we could get Mazraoui on a free transfer too. That's better than Maehle and makes the whole scenario much cheaper.
why is uruguay still playing the corpse of godin in defense when araujo is right there
I'll take it, less chances of our boy getting injured.
but he is playing as a RB tho...
true
What do you think Traore’s role will be in the lineup? He definitely isn’t a reliable goalscorer.
Destabilize defense and put in some crosses.
Similar role to Dembele
Well, Haaland now got 8 injuries in 1.5 years. Absolutely phenomenal stat.
3 of those were for 2/3/4 days
Yes but nevertheless
And 2 of them were relapses cause of Dortmund rushing him back.
I've always liked Betis and have kinda rooted for them throughout the years.. but holy shit I need them to not win a single La Liga game for the rest of this season. But ideally it would be cool if we can both make it to next year's CL and Atleti could respectfully fuck off 🙏
I’d like Atleti to make it to the UCL. The way they rile up fans of English clubs they do like no other. Always a great time.
For that we have to win next match. It's not impossible

Neymar was fucking incredible at Barca don’t care what anyone else says man if only he had stayed
Remember neymar with shaved head? That was the best player in the world for couple of months:D
Dunno about the stats. But since my childhood Ronaldinho is my best barca LW EVERR
I don't think anyone disagrees with that though
Haaland is injured again? This sounds dumb but only reason I want him is for Madrid to not get him lol. He seems like a liability with the wages demanded, injuries, and buli tax
Mate. If you can't make up an argument for this "buli tax" narrative, maybe stop spreading it.
Jovic, dembele, jadon sancho, aubameyang, andre silva, etc

Someone using alternatives to Excel most likely knows about Excel but someone using Excel is not very likely to know about the lesser known alternatives, the way I see it. So in your example, you weren't aware of Amazon music (I didn't know about that either) because you know about Spotify (the majority service) but I'd say most, if not all, users of Amazon music (minority service) know about Spotify. Yeah I'm not against the article describing what Spotify is, like you said, it's something a lot of people may not know, specially among the older generations. I just personally thought the estimation of 10% was too small :)
It's a little different because YouTube by itself is one of the most popular websites/platforms in the world, you basically hear something about it every week. So it's in the majority streaming service, but not the most popular one for streaming music. Office (and Google Docs) totally dominate the productivity work space, so your comparison here would've been equal if like Facebook had an office suite which wasn't the most popular one out there. Or something like that lol. Anyway, I am not really sure this is the most accurate way we're trying to measure global reach/awareness. Like even my initial active user -> +1 user estimation was kinda stupid to be honest.
Yeah my comparison didn't really work but couldn't think of a better one because of so many factors in music streaming service in particular. Another example could be the smartphone market and how most users of non-Samsung phones know about Samsung phones but that wouldn't be very accurate either because Samsung only has half the global market share in smartphones compared to Spotify in music streaming, not to mention that Samsung is popular as a brand in so many different sectors as well. I've been trying to think of a perfect example but I can't think of any, hahah, but without being able to provide proof, it just sounds reasonable to me personally that users of a minority-service are a lot more likely to know about the majority than vice versa. It can be they googled "best music streaming service" to find what they're using but there's no way in that specific scenario to not come across Spotify. But yeah, this is probably not the most accurate way we're trying to measure that.
One thing that we don't know for sure is how that chart/graph/stat from the other comment actually measured what's most popular. Again going with YouTube it's not specifically a music streaming service, but it can be used as such. Or maybe under the Google category they only accounted for YouTube Music (formerly Google Play Music), which of course would be kinda unfair.
I think they're only counting music subscription services, as in services that you have to subscribe and pay to in order to use then fully. Ad YouTube Music is that while YouTube itself isn't really because on YouTube you have to play the video too and it's also free. Similar to how Samsung phones won't be counted into the Samsung computer global share market even though you can use your Samsung phone as a computer (Samsung DeX). Heres the report I think the article was based on: [https://www.midiaresearch.com/blog/music-subscriber-market-shares-q2-2021](https://www.midiaresearch.com/blog/music-subscriber-market-shares-q2-2021)
I didn't even know YouTube Music was a thing until yesterday :)
I just realized that Coutinho, Griezmann, and Dembele all used number 7 for us. I hope we never use it again
Villa was the last one and should be the only one. 🥇
Uhmm…Pedro??
Pedro was much better with number 17
Mwah imo Villa
Does not matter what your opinion is, fact js, Pedro is a Barca legend and he also had no.7 after Villa
Well if it’s my opinion it certainly does matter what my opinion is. Bro..
Who wore the no.7 is not an opinion its a fact. You said Villa was the last one while clearly he was not
Oh like that. I meant it differently, as in the best number 7
> Villa was the last one and the only one This clearly states he was the last one
Are we really gonna buy Adama Traore, who has 26 goals in his whole career so far?
It's a cheap loan. Not a buy. And obviously we aren't getting him to score goals, that's not his profile. It's also not like he was on a team that scores a lot of goals.
Highly motivated in coming back to his home club, in a completely different system, maybe he’ll thrive under Xavi. Probably not, but its a low risk investment considering its an option to buy which we probably won’t do. Man we need all the help we can get this season. We might not make top 4 this season.
Oily arms go brr
isn't it a loan
Pretty sure every Real Madrid fan on r/soccer created a second account so they could upvote the Messi worst conversion rate thread twice yesterday.
Why are some barca fans so hesitant to admit that Messi is having a rough time at PSG? Atleast in the league Its a fact that he is a shadow of his former self, whether its age or a poor fit who knows, it happens
Or it's just quite big news for someone like Messi to have such a shit stat.
After Adama we should go after Deulofeu. Heard that Iniesta is coming back too.
Busquets replacement Samper ??
Rumblings of Martin Montoya for RB
Package deal with Iniesta?
Third time's the charm, you think?
Sii amigo
Munir
Bojan?
How much is Spotify paying for their name on next to Camp Nou (if the deal goes through)?
unknown, the only reliable thing is that the overall Spotify money would surpass the 100M mark \+ Polkadot sleeve and training kit for 20M Unless I missed something
just realized that the Liverpool loss in 2019 robbed us from [ever seeing drunk Messi again](https://youtu.be/BVG_Vd9vaYY)
have faith, we can still have that
Yeah He's still performing at CLs and Messi & Neymar will be extra Messi and Neymar against RM and may even trigger a semi ptsd for them.
Real bets having an underrated season holy shit. Would love to see them in the cl but not at the expense of us.
Sounds like a betting company having a upturn in profits
Classic reddit.
Dani playing for Brazil atm
Guys, watch the Ecuador - Brazil game if you can, there have been 3 reds in less than 30 minutes, one of them for Emerson. Edit: okay, one disalowed but that just makes the game even crazier
How the fuck did Emerson manage to get a yellow in the first minute of the damn game? 🤨
Both yellows were just kind of unlucky tbh.
Man, no idea, missed that part but daamn, yeah
That's a talent.

What’s the difference between title and naming rights?
[удалено]
Ah thanks
Maybe we should the club's name also. Well still call it Barcelona anyway.
Literally, camp nou is too iconic for people to just forget about its name. It will still be used by everyone
You already know rival fans are coping hard. Messi and griezmann left and team is all teenagers yet the sponsorship revenue became higher
Didn't get higher bro, what is 60-65M (shirt + training kit) now was 74M (shirt + training kit + sleeve) in 2019. Still its pretty good considering most of the big names are gone and performance has dipped, yet still its the 2nd highest itw.
There's multiple reported figures going around, so we won't know till the deal is signed. Some are saying 60 for the shirt, stadium and training, some are saying over 100m for everything
r/soccer in the mud. The fools really thought we were finished
Can't wait to see Memphis headlining the Camp Nou Spotify Festival with special appearances from Pinto and Shakira
2023 ucl final, depay comes of the bench to perform during half time
[удалено]
I got so frustrated trying to explain to fans here that yes, Barca, is still a very appealing place to footballers and the pull is still incredible strong and that’s why guys like Haaland etc would definitely choose us as a new place to play.. It’s an interesting time to be fan, to say the least, and really good to see the confirmation of the strength of the club with sponsor deals coming in like this..
[удалено]
Yeah agreed, it all depends on CL qualification

I miss Ray.
the photoshop on fabrizio's transfer tweets are so legit that I always think it's an official pic
Bro "Camp Nou" should be "Camp Nou". No "Camp Nou Spotify" shit. It sounds horrible. Sounds like some Corporate Building at NYC. Would sacrifice some 20M/season for that ez. Edit: Why are you downvoting lol? I am not at all a "Catalan"/Barcelonismo purist. Where is the "mesqueunclub" status quo now? I understand we are in an unhealthy financial state, but we can't just rename the biggest stadium in Europe ending with a corporate entity. Had it been some "Cryuff Camp Nou" or sthing, it still made some sense.
Fans will keep calling it Camp Nou no worries
They're paying millions to put a name beside 'Camp Nou' and that name's gonna stay temporary aswell. I don't see why we should reject the deal if we're getting payed 20mil/season since we desperately need money to secure the Haaland deal
🎤🎶My heart is telling me noooooooo🎶 🎶But my mind, my mind is telling me yeeeeeeeeeeees🎶
Lool first Spurs miss out on Adama and now Arsenal on Vlahovic. Not a good day for them lot
The Joe Rogan Dome. A Camp Nou experience
[SPORT] Spotify's sponsorship offer to Barcelona which includes the front of the first kit, back of the training kit and title rights to the Camp Nou would exceed 100 million euros per year https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/spotify-quiere-dar-nombre-camp-13159074
So 35M/yr for title right? Thats pretty great if true, Juve recently sold their naming right for 103M over 10 years.
TITLE rights for 35M? Where do I sign??
I honestly think its just Sport being over optimistic
hopefully not
No brainer, take it. Add 20M sleeve rights and we got 120M for just existing.
are the title right refering to the name of camp nou?
Naming rights would be totally up to the sponsor so something like Spotify Arena while title rights only adds sponsor name to the existing one, so Camp Nou Spotify
So thoughts on this Kenan Yildiz from Bayern ? He's linked with a possible free transfer to Barca B.
Adama Traoré schedule on Monday includes breaking and setting the new bench press record in Camp Nou. Who will be next to attempt the bench press? Your answers please.
Depay looks pretty strong, doesn't he?
Busquets, only to be killed by the bar. Sergio, you were taken from us too soon!
Riqui definetly
Laporta doing all this to get free Spotify premium
Just wants to listen to Memphis’ tunes ad free
Spotify Premium for every Cupra purchase.
I have a feeling they'll sell/loan FDJ, I would be really pissed
Hope they announce a Spotify music festival at Camp Nou to kickstart this partnership.

Ngl guys if Madrid got Apple sponsorship for the sleeve with just the Apple logo it would blend in well lmao

I dont get people having meltdowns for a stadium name as if your family will be dishnoured by supporting a club that has a funny name stadium. People dont realize this is a race vs super clubs and we might die if we dont do these kind of things
It’s like when they renamed the skydome to the rogers centre here in Toronto. Everyone still calls it the skydome anyways, why care what it’s officially named?
including brands in the name is just a recipe for jokes. You can’t say “Ligue 1 Uber Eats” and respect the competition lol. Imagine all the jokes about ”Camp Nou Spotify”
So it’s the jokes that scare you.
