Overview
- Barcelona and Martínez agreed to rescind his contract on August 9 to facilitate his free move.
- He signed a two-year deal with Al-Nassr that features a release clause for departure after one season.
- The termination generates roughly €14 million in annual wage relief, key to meeting LaLiga’s 1:1 fair play rule.
- Martínez’s March renewal had pre-established terms enabling a free exit if a Saudi offer materialized.
- The freed payroll space allows Barcelona to formally register summer acquisitions like Joan García and Nico Williams.
