The club's General Assembly of Shareholders approved a budget of €60 million for 2023. In this meeting, 2021-2022's financial report was shown, which revealed the club in the red, with €5.164.156 in losses, because of two main reasons: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and going down to La Liga 2, which the additional costs resulting from the subsequent promotion must be added to.
