La Liga Announces 2024-25 Salary Limits For Barcelona, Madrid, And Other Clubs

Published

on

La Liga have announced their salary limits for the 2024-25 season, updating the amount of money that clubs can spend without La Liga imposing further spending limits on clubs.

Barcelona is naturally the headline act, boasting a salary limit that is €156 million higher than what they had at the beginning of the season.

It’s crucial to understand that these limits indicate the maximum amount clubs can spend, but there are additional restrictions on how much they can use for registering players.

There are a total of nine clubs over their salary limit between La Liga and Segunda, including Sevilla and Espanyol. Los Nervionenses have a limit of just €2.5m, while Espanyol’s is a little under €9m.

They are significantly over budget, indicating that they exceeded their salary limit by a margin in the previous season.

Real Madrid continues to have nearly double the salary limit of their closest competitor, in this case, Barcelona, with a salary limit that again increased from last season. Their salary limit rose from €493m to €755m, which denotes the change from the start of the transfer window, but in reality, it is up from €727m last season.

Barcelona’s salary limit has risen to €426 million, an increase from €270 million last season and €200 million in January.

Meanwhile, Atlético remains the clear third in Spain, with a salary limit of €310 million which reflects a €14 million rise the previous year.

Below the big three, Real Sociedad and Villarreal are well ahead of the rest of the chasing pack, where their salary limits are €159m and €135m respectively. Real Betis follow with €109m, Athletic are at €100m, and Girona have reached €94m, increasing their salary limit by close to half with the money they will gain from the Champions League, which was just €51m last season.

At the bottom of the table, Leganés holds the lowest salary limit at €37 million, just above Sevilla and Espanyol, with Alavés slightly above at €38.6 million. In ascending order, there is little variation among Getafe, Las, Real Valladolid, and Rayo Vallecano. RCD Mallorca and Osasuna have limits of €59 million and €52 million, respectively.

They are Valencia at €75 million and Celta at €77.5 million, both of which have decreased compared to last season’s figures for September.

The limits have increased by €645m from the start of the transfer window to the end, to a total of €2.608b.

La Liga notes that the total spend is €544m, and the total income from the window is €535m, although this does not take into account free transfers and their cost, such as that of Kylian Mbappe.
