Barcelona have generated an estimated €116 million in positive transfer value since 2022, according to a study by the CIES Football Observatory .

Notably, the figures reveal a contrast between the players who remain at the club and those who have already departed.

Barcelona’s current signings are estimated to be worth around €180 million more than the fees paid to acquire them.

However, players who have since left have generated a negative balance of €64 million when their original transfer costs are compared with the amounts recouped through departures.

The resulting €116 million positive balance, thus, places Barcelona sixth among Spanish clubs in the study’s sample.

Crucially, the figures measure estimated transfer value rather than actual revenue or sporting success.

The strongest part of Barcelona’s transfer balance comes from players who remain under contract.

According to the CIES study, their estimated market value exceeds the fees paid to sign them by approximately €180 million.
