LaLiga has published the salary limits of the teams in LaLiga and LaLiga SmartBank for the 2019/20 season. And the surprise has come from Atlético de Madrid, not because they lead this list, in fact they are third, but because they have this year the same limit that Real Madrid and Barcelona had five seasons ago.
The most popular teams in Spain, the 'blancos' and 'azulgranas', continue to lead the ranking with the newly promoted Mallorca at the bottom. In fact, the difference between the first and the last exceeds 640 million euros.
What is the salary cap and how is it calculated?
The limit includes, among other things, the salaries of the players, the first and second coach, the physical trainer, the expenses of the reserve teams, the academy, etc. In the case of the Spanish league, this spending control is carried out several times during the season.
The principle for calculating it is to subtract from the total income the expenses that have nothing to do with the construction of the sports team.
