Barcelona to miss out on 30% of fee for upcoming player sale
That's according to journalist Nil Solà of SER, who has on Wednesday provided an insight into the situation.
The name of frontman Víctor has of course dominated the headlines in Catalunya's capital across the day to date.
This comes after confirmation was forthcoming that, somewhat out of the blue, the 23-year-old is on the verge of a move to Portugal with SC Braga.
Surplus to requirements in Hansi Flick's squad following the arrival of Marcus Rashford, the Barcelona board showed little hesitation in giving the green light to Víctor's sale.
The figures landed upon in negotiations with Braga, it is understood, are a base fee of €12 million, and a further €3 million in bonuses.
As alluded to above, though, the entirety of this sum will not land in the accounts at the Spotify Camp Nou.
As per a report from the aforementioned Nil Solà:
'Girona have a 30% share of Pau Víctor's sale in this summer transfer market. Girona had agreed on 50% in the first transfer window and now have 30%.'

'The players are very excited' - Arteta on Gyokeres arrival
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says it "has been a long journey" to sign striker Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon but everyone is now "very excited" that he is here. The 27-year-old was unveiled before the Gunners 3-2 win over Newcastle in Singapore, having gone straight from the airport to the stadium. As he has not yet trained with his new team-mates, and has not properly trained since Sporting won the Primeira Liga title in May, Arteta is yet to confirm whether the striker will be available for their game against Tottenham in Hong Kong on Thursday. "We are super happy to have Viktor with us," said Arteta. "It's been a long journey to get him over here. "He's been incredible. He was very clear from the beginning where he wanted to play and that passion I felt from him from day one when we first spoke. "You can see the boys [are] very excited with his arrival. "I don't think he has had a single training session with the team since the last game with Sporting when they became champions. So we will assess him. "He's done all the medicals and everything is looking good, but getting him up to speed with the right levels of fitness is very important. "So we're not going to stop him. We want him with us as quick as possible, but we'll have to assess and the medical team will do that."

Europe Inc swerves Trump trade war 'hurricane' but laments higher tariffs
LONDON (Reuters) -European companies were left wondering on Monday whether to cheer a hard-won U.S. trade deal or lament a still sharp jump in tariffs versus those in place before President Donald Trump's second term. A day earlier, European leaders heralded a framework trade deal with the United States that would impose a 15% import tariff on most EU goods, averting a spiralling battle between two allies which account for almost a third of global trade. Although the deal is better than the 30% rate threatened by Trump and will bring clarity for European makers of cars, planes and chemicals, the 15% baseline tariff is well above initial hopes of a zero-for-zero agreement. It is also higher than the U.S. import tariff rate last year of around 2.5%. "Those who expect a hurricane are grateful for a storm," said Wolfgang Große Entrup, head of the German Chemical Industry Association VCI, calling for more talks to reduce tariffs that he said were "too high" for Europe's chemical industry. "Further escalation has been avoided. Nevertheless, the price is high for both sides. European exports are losing competitiveness. U.S. customers are paying the tariffs." The deal, which also includes $600 billion of EU investments in the United States and $750 billion of EU purchases of U.S. energy over Trump's second term, includes some exemptions, even if details are still to be ironed out. Carmakers Volkswagen and Stellantis, among others, will face the 15% tariff, down from 25% under the global levy imposed by Trump in April. Stellantis shares rose 3.5% and car parts maker Valeo was up 4.7% in early trade. German pharma group Merck KGaA gained 2.9%. Aircraft and aircraft parts will be exempt - good news for French planemaker Airbus - as will certain chemicals, some generic drugs, semiconductor equipment, some farm products, natural resources and critical raw materials. Shares in the world's biggest chip maker ASML rose more than 4%, among the biggest gainers on the pan-European STOXX 600 index. STILL TO BE NEGOTIATED Dutch brewer Heineken cheered the deal, with CEO Dolf van den Brink welcoming the certainty it brought. The world's No.2 brewer sends beer, especially its namesake lager, to the U.S. from Europe and Mexico, and has also suffered from the indirect effect on consumer confidence in important markets like Brazil. The rate on spirits that could impact firms such as Diageo, Pernod Ricard and LVMH, is still being negotiated though. "It seems that in coming days there could be negotiations for certain agricultural products, zero for zero, which is what the European and U.S. sectors have been calling for," said Jose Luis Benitez, director of the Spanish Wine Federation. Benitez added that a 15% rate could put Europe at a disadvantage versus other wine exporting regions subject to 10% tariffs. "If there are any exceptions, we hope that the (European) Commission understands that wine should be one of them." Lamberto Frescobaldi, the president of Italian wine body UIV, said on Sunday that 15% tariffs on wine would result in a loss of 317 million euros ($372.63 million) over the next 12 months, though the group was waiting to see the final deal text. Others said that the agreement- which followed on the heels of a similar one with Japan - helped bring greater clarity for company leaders, but still threatened to make European firms less competitive. "While this agreement puts an end to uncertainty, it poses a significant threat to the competitiveness of the French cosmetics industry," said Emmanuel Guichard, secretary general of French cosmetics association FEBEA, which counts L'Oreal, LVMH and Clarins among its members.
