One of the leading candidates to become president of Barcelona this summer has said he would consider breaking the club's tradition of not selling advertising on players' shirts.
Sandro Rosell, who is expected to run in elections to replace outgoing president Joan Laporta, said that financial issues must be taken into consideration with regard to shirt sponsorship.
Since 2006, Barcelona players have worn the UNICEF logo on their shirts and the club pays the organisation 1.5 million euros ($A2.2 million) per year for them to do so. The club has never sold shirt advertising in its 111-year history.
Rosell is a former Barca vice president who left the club in 2005 after a dispute with Laporta.
