Barca raises €100m in cash for 9,600 long term season tickets in new Camp Nou

January 15 – FC Barcelona’s financial difficulties are well documented, and the search for cash has at times seemed like a selling of the family jewels, however the club announced that they have eased financial concerns after raising an initial €100 million ($102m) from the sale of 30-year ‘season tickets’ in the VIP section of its revamped Camp Nou stadium.

How €100 million will ease financial concerns is a question that only the bean counters in Barcelona’s accounting office can answer though.
