The roots of the crisis can be traced back to several factors, including overspending on player transfers and wages, mismanagement of the club's finances, and the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Barcelona's wage bill, in particular, has been a major burden on the club's finances, with reports indicating that it accounted for around 80% of the club's revenue in recent years.
