LaLiga Sets 2025–26 Spending Caps: Real Madrid Tops €761m as Barcelona Drops €112m

LaLiga attributed Barcelona’s reduction to VIP-box income not validated by its auditor, with some club increases reliant on owner guarantees subject to later review.

Overview

  • The combined ceiling for Primera and Segunda is set at €2.70468 billion, figures now in force that will guide registrations and January market planning.
  • Real Madrid leads at €761.226 million, Barcelona sits at €351.27 million and Atlético de Madrid at €326.98 million, with Sevilla lowest on €22.139 million.
  • LaLiga said Barcelona’s cut reflects roughly €100 million in VIP-box revenue not recognized by the club’s auditor, and it did not specify when the team will reach 1:1 spending compliance.
  • Valencia’s limit rises to €91.24 million after a personal guarantee of about €30–35 million from owner Peter Lim tied to projected Nou Mestalla commercial income and Goldman Sachs financing, which LaLiga approved on the basis of the guarantee rather than the transaction.
  • Other notable moves include Athletic up to €126.05 million on European income and Celta at €91.12 million for a first-ever pass of €90 million, while in Segunda Leganés leads on €14.773 million ahead of Las Palmas (€13.377m) and Real Valladolid (€12.165m) as Mirandés reaches €7.891 million.
