FC Barcelona may have taken a more cautious approach in the transfer market in recent years, but their financial decisions from past signings remain significant. According to the club’s latest financial report, cited by SPORT, the Catalan giants still owe €159.1 million to other clubs for previous transfers as of June 30, 2025.
Of that figure, €140.6 million is due within the next year, while €18.5 million represents long-term obligations. The largest amount is owed to Leeds United (€41.9 million) for the signing of Raphinha, followed by Sevilla (€24.5 million) for Jules Kounde, and Bayern Munich (€20 million) for Robert Lewandowski.

Other pending payments include €13.3 million to Manchester City for Ferran Torres, €8 million to Real Betis for Emerson Royal, and over €6 million linked to Lewandowski’s transfer as performance-related bonuses to various German clubs. Smaller amounts are still owed to Valencia, Girona, Sporting CP, and Stade Rennais.
Despite these liabilities, the report also shows that Barcelona are owed €64.1 million from other clubs — a sharp increase from last year’s €35.9 million. Approximately €40.3 million of this comes from transfer operations, while €12 million is due from La Liga itself. Among the clubs still to pay Barcelona are FC Porto (€6.7 million) for Nico Gonzalez, Al Ahli (€4.1 million) for Franck Kessie, and Shakhtar Donetsk (€3.1 million) for Marlon.
Additional receivables include smaller sums related to deals for Antoine Griezmann, Alex Collado, Julian Araujo, and Sergi Gomez, showing that while transfer debts weigh heavily, Barcelona also hold notable credit across the football market.
