Barcelona’s tardiness in trying to address their salary limit and financial issues this summer has raised many eyebrows, with a potential new sponsorship deal with Nike still not done with three days to go in the transfer market. It may be that they simply don’t have enough people working on it.
As per Ara (and quoted by Sport), Director of Administration and Finances Angel Rocamora stopped working at the club several weeks ago. He has gone to a different position in Public Administration.
The move adds to the many directors and board members that have already left under President Joan Laporta’s mandate, which number more than thirty. Rocamora is another exit in the financial department after Ferran Reverter, Maribel Melendez and Eduard Romeu. He was working directly below Head of Economics Manel del Rio, and has exit has caused Marcel Ramirez to be promoted.
Barcelona have reassured Christensen that he will be able to play whenever he returns from his injury, which according to the player's camp, is much earlier than four months. Barça used his injury to register Dani Olmo. @ferrancorreas

Ramirez is adds those tasks to his already burgeoning role as manager of administration and accounting, treasury and consolidation and administration of filial sides, as well as Director of Planning and Economic Control.
Barcelona have not publicly commented on the matter, and have suffered yet another loss in their higher echelons. It has not been publicly addressed by the club, and only serves to add to a narrative in Barcelona.
What a model of a train wreck is the Barcelona football club. “Barcelona have reassured Christensen that he will be able to play whenever he returns from his injury, which according to the player’s camp, is much earlier than four months. Barça used his injury to register Dani Olmo.”
Of course Christensen will be ready much earlier than four months. That was just a sham to register Olmo. The truth of the matter will come once Cristensen is fit, but still is not allowed to return to play.
