Girona’s salary cap

Although LaLiga published the most popular figures of the teams in the first days of the championship, Girona already knows what the salary limit is that it will be able to offer in its Champions League year. The third position during the regular championship and the possibility of entering the continental tournament with victories prove that the project of the Catalan club continues an upward trend.

The 44.6 million euros Montilivi earnings for the qualifying final campaign is in line with the 2.1 million the Girona-based entity will earn for winning the Champions League. The triangle is completed by the salary cap which, far from being ‘up to the neck’, shows serious health.

Besides, sales like Aleix Garcia’s or another one of those said, perhaps, in another destination will help, even more if possible, to increase said numbers. And, without walking any further, Girona increased the salary cap by 25 compared to where it lived a decade ago. From 2.1 million euros it went up to 51.9 promoted by Diari de Girona, figures that will increase during the 2025/2026 season.

Gone, then, are those times when sports managementordered Quique Cárcel, I need to measure any operation in millimeters. The accounts of the ‘blanc-i-vermella’ entity are healthy, so the club is taking advantage of the events of this season to make investments never seen before, which double -as in the case of Luciano Rodríguez– the maximum club operation for a player who maintains Dovbyk with a signing worth around seven million euros.

Last year, the club could already boast numbers with 42.7 million euros allocated to the salary cap. In the previous phase in the First Division, the budgets allocated to the squad reached 37.2 million euros and 31.1, respectively. If everything continues on its course, Girona and its trend will have strength and health for a while.
