Cordoba and the second division teams that are part of professional football and La Liga already know the salary limits of the rest of the rivals with whom they compete this season. As expected, the green and white team is among the lowest positions in the ranking given its status as a recently promoted team, with just enough income to justify the expenses. a handicap with which the green and white team had to navigate through a transfer market, conditioned by the dreaded salary limit.
The salary cap, colloquially, is the amount of money a club can spend on building the squad and coaching staff. La Liga currently calls this the “staff cost limit.” And it is obtained from the difference between a club’s income and expenses. Cordoba CEO, Antonio Fernández Monterrubiohas already warned that the green and white club will have a salary cap of 6.1 million euros at the end of the market. However, this will be a figure that will increase as the season progresses.
Regarding Cordoba, according to La Liga data, their current salary cap is €6.1 million. That puts you in 16th place out of 22 teams that make up the silver category. Below you have rivals like Eldense or Mirandés with 5.8 and 4.3 respectively. However, it is surprising to see teams like Almería so far with 3.5 in the penultimate position or Levante with 4.2 despite having a squad with a great market value. As ABC has learned, many clubs are not satisfied with the “unreal” data published by LaLiga.
Among the teams with the highest salary limit are Cádiz, which comes first with 18.8 million; Elche with 14.9 and Deportivo de La Coruña with 13.4. Córdoba’s next rival, although it is a recently promoted from the First Federationoccupies the third step of the table above other recently relegated from the First Division such as Granada, with a limit of 6.9; just above the green and white club. Data that surprised the green and white fans and a large part of the supporters of the frenetic Second Division.
Now it is the turn of La Liga to examine the salary limits of each team and verify the veracity of the accounts. Some, if they do not comply with the economic standards of the category, will be subject to readjustments, or even possible sanctions for the next market signings in January. For its part, Cordoba will try to increase its salary cap as the season progresses.
