Similar to the departure of Neymar … Barcelona revives its treasury with 36 million

close >

FC Barcelona managed to market two deals that did not add to the team as a performance on the field, but could also be useful in financial calculations, in recent years it can be said that in the second case, the deals that left the best profit between the cost on their arrival and what was paid for them on departure They are French Jean-Clair Todibo and Colombian Yerry Min, they played only 11 games for Barca but left up to 36 million winnings.

Since 2017, when Paris Saint-Germain snatched Neymar from the Camp Nou by paying 222 million euros for Barcelona on the condition that the contract be terminated, FC Barcelona has been reinforced with players of high expectations, with Ousmane Dembele, Philippe Coutinho and Antoine Griezmann … , but he also did it with players of more appearance. humbly

Oddly enough, two of the lowlies have been the team’s most profitable players on the market in the last five summers despite their nil contribution as FC Barcelona players.

Todibo, the French centre-back who signed with Toulouse for €1m in January 2019, was just transferred in June 2021 to Nice for €8.5m plus 7 other variables, so Barcelona could end up earning Todibo as much as 17 times what he paid for his signature.

Another promotion that did not arouse any enthusiasm when Barcelona closed it was the promotion of Colombian defender Yerry Mina. In January 2018, FC Barcelona paid 11.8 million for it, and in August of the same year it was sold to Everton for 32 million, almost tripling its market value.

What’s curious about it is that Mina played six games for Barcelona and Todibo five, and they could end up leaving a net profit of €36m.
