According to Marca, Inigor's departure is still not enough to allow Barcelona to register Joan Garcia and Rashford. According to reports, Inigo will complete the signing of a victory with Riyadh in the next few hours. The player applied to Barcelona for leaving because he received a huge offer.
Inigo's departure will save Barcelona a considerable salary to create space for "financial equity". His annual salary in Barcelona is 14 million euros, and the funds can now be used to register other players. But Inigo's departure did not allow Barcelona to register Garcia, Rashford and other players immediately.
The reason is that Barcelona has not reached the 1:1 rule at present, so it cannot directly use the 14 million euros released by Inigo leaving the team. Currently, the club can only use half of them, which is not enough to complete the registration of the two major new players.
For goalkeeper Garcia, the salary part can be covered, but the annual amortization fee of 25 million euros paid to Espanyol Club cannot be covered. The same is true for
Rashford. Rashford joined in the form of loan, so there is no issue of transfer fees amortization. However, his salary is very high. Although he has significantly reduced his salary in order to join Barcelona, it still exceeds the amount of funds available to Barcelona after Inigo leaves the team.
There are two ways for Barcelona to register a player. First, if Ter Stegen ends up missing for at least four months due to injury, he can use his registration quota, in which case the club can use 80% of Ter Stegen's salary to create enough space, as this operation is not subject to the 1:1 rule. Secondly, the auditing agency and La Liga need to wait for approval of the VIP box revenue of Spotify Camp Nou Stadium. If approved, Barcelona will restore 1:1 financial rules, so that they can register new players.
The space released by Inigo's departure can indeed be used to register other players, such as Badge or Martin, but the club believes the priority is Garcia and Rashford, so they will wait to complete the registration of both players first.
