President of the Spanish LaLiga, Javier Thebescalls for immediate and deterrent sanctions against paris st germain (PSG) and also sport because it thinks it doesn’t work because of the amount and progressive nature of those imposed by UEFA for violating the rules of financial fair play.

In an interview published this Wednesday by L’Équipe, Tebas said, “From now on you have to punish“Because the 65 million euro penalty given by UEFA at the beginning of the season does not work, 55 million of which are exempted, except for recidivism.

In this context, “10 euros for PSG and a cafe (president Nasser (Al Khelaïfi))”. As such, he insists that “sanctions should act as a deterrent and affect sport as well.”

He calculates that in the last six or seven seasons the club in the French capital has lost 1,000m euros, thereby “disrupting the ecosystem of European football”.

“How can other clubs compete with a club that lost 1000 million euros?‘ asks himself rhetorically before replying with ‘It’s complicated.

UEFA’s financial fair play rules are designed to ensure a certain fairness in competition. teams must maintain a balance between income and expensescomes largely from player tokens.

However, PSG has been criticized for omitting these rules because behind the Qatar sovereign fund that owns it is the State of Qatar, whose notoriety and impact outweigh economic profitability.

Mbappe’s signature

Tebas believes it is ‘impossible’ for the French club to cover contract costs Kylian Mbappe with current rules.

When asked about the 630m euros allegedly fixed on a three-season contract with Mbappé last summer, according to figures released by the French press last week and which PSG refuted, the LaLiga president is first ironic.

“It was known that Mbappe had to pay dearly to stay at PSG.. But getting to know Al Khelaïfi doesn’t seem like much to me… He has no limits in achieving his goals. PSG and Al Khelaïfi showed that money is not their problem. If they had to give Mbappe another 200 million, they would give it to him.”

According to him, the economic dispute between the BeIN company (owned by Al Khelaïfi himself) and LaLiga stems from his complaints against the PSG president.

Tebas especially criticizes BeIN for only getting 10 million of the 60 million euros that the Spanish league has had to pay since 15 August for broadcasting rights abroad.

“I think they do it by saying: ‘You’re acting like a bad boy by criticizing Javier and PSG for treating us badly, we’re going to stop paying you,’ he says.

Tebas, like other big clubs, protects himself from looking down on Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​who defend the European super league project that will compete with the Champions League.

He stressed that he was “the most critical” of the two Spanish teams, telling their president that what they did was “worse than club states like PSG or Manchester City”.

“If LaLiga had supported them, they would have criticized me,” he adds.
