ANDhe president of LaLiga, Javier Tebas, considers that the economic situation of Barcelona “it’s not that bad ” and accuses the different club presidents of “throwing garbage” on the precedents.

“About Barça I am more concerned about the institutional crisis I see that because of the economic situation, “he said in an interview published this Thursday by the newspaper L’Équipe. The president of LaLiga reacted from Monaco, where he participated in the Sportel fair, to the publication of the Barcelona audit, which amounts to 1,350 million euros in the club’s debt.

“All those who arrive throw garbage in those who precede them. We have their figures, Barça was not almost dead, otherwise, they would not have been able to receive a credit of more than 500 million euros. Barça is not so bad, although it is worse than Madrid, “he added.

Barça was not almost dead, if not, it would not have been able to receive a loan of more than 500 million euros

Thebes maintained that Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) “cheats” to skip the financial fair play of UEFA and recalled that in the past he was not sanctioned “for a procedural error and not for the substance.”

He maintained that he has evidence which show that PSG “does not generate the money necessary to have that squad”, which it valued at 600 million euros, and pointed out that it represents “a distortion of competition in the European football economy.”

Benzema is the best 9 in Europe

I consider that their accounts do not correspond to the actual sponsorship, as shown by 40% more income than established brands such as Manchester United.

Tebas pointed out that PSG is not the only “club-state that invests without limits destabilizing football.”

The president of LaLiga estimated that the exit of stars of the Spanish championship, like the Argentine Lionel Messi or the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, have not prevented a rise from “13 to 14% of international rights for the next four seasons. “

“It is good to have these players, but our strategy does not depend on them (…) For me, Benzema is the best 9 in Europe. There is no reason to be pessimistic,” he said.
