Due to their financial issues, the player at Camp Nou was forced to accept a considerable pay decrease. With the La Liga champions, Alonso reportedly reached an agreement on a $3.2 million annual compensation. At the La Liga club, the former Chelsea star makes about $270,000 each month, or about $63,000 per week. He has a net worth of $35 million.
Marcos Alonso has officially been registered
Earlier this year, Marcos Alonso agreed to a contract extension that will extend his current agreement through the year 2024. However, the Financial Fair Play restrictions prevented FC Barcelona from registering Alonso’s new contract with La Liga, which even sparked rumours that the team could contemplate offloading the star this summer.
However, Marcos Alonso got registered with La Liga by Barcelona before their match against Villarreal. The former Chelsea player has now officially been registered by the Catalan club with La Liga as the club has now been able to free up some cash thanks to goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s new contract. The German goalkeeper chose to take a pay cut in order to stay with the Catalan team longer.
The recent injury to Alejandro Balde accelerated Alonso’s registration
According to sources, Alejandro Balde’s recent injury compelled Barcelona to give Alonso’s registration priority. The registration enables Marcos Alonso to compete this weekend against Villarreal. His second campaign with Barcelona will begin this year.
According to reports, clubs in Saudi Arabia and Europe are both interested in the Spaniard. Manchester United of the Premier League reportedly asked about Alonso’s future at Camp Nou. However, as of now, nothing has been done.
Barcelona now has a better chance of completing a second transfer this summer because of Ter Stegen’s pay decrease. Joao Cancelo is a player the club would like to acquire before the summer transfer window closes.
