Granada CF has announced a new increase in season ticket prices, a last‑ditch measure to ease a delicate financial situation. The club, currently 14th in Segunda División, 48 pts, 12W-12D-18L from 42 games, has seen its finances worsen after a campaign without signings and a five‑match losing streak.
What does the new ticket price mean?
The hike, the second in a row, affects all members renewing for the 2026‑27 season. Management tried to soften the impact with attendance bonuses and exemptions for the infant and "baby" plans, but social media reaction has been largely negative. Fans recall the last stay in the silver tier and the low turnout at Los Cármenes in recent games.
Why is the club resorting to this measure?
The lack of signings has left the squad thin: thirteen departures and only thirteen players under contract, including Stoichkov and Gerard Gumbau, whose futures remain uncertain. With no transfer income, boosting ticket revenue is the only way to generate cash. Moreover, the team is 34 points behind leaders Racing Santander in the title race, highlighting the gap to any promotion hopes.
How does this affect supporters and the sporting project?
Members voice frustration, especially after the latest result: Granada CF 1-2 Sporting Gijón (2026-05-30). The combination of a higher price and a 0W-0D-5L (LLLLL) streak has fueled doubt about the project's future. A possible sale to Michael Schwimer and the entry of Big League Advantage could inject capital, but until then pressure on fans remains high.
What lies ahead for pre‑season?
With pre‑season just starting, the club needs to reinforce its squad before league play begins. Limited resources restrict signing ability, making the closure of the deal with the North American investor essential. Until then, ticket‑holders will have to bear the new cost while the team fights to escape the relegation zone.
