Javier Tebas is perhaps the most committed league president in the fight against the new rich in European football. Accustomed to publicly tackling Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, the boss of Laliga presented this on the occasion of the Business of Football Summit organized by the Financial Times. And this time, the Cityzens took the most expensive. Tebas also called for sanctions against the English club as part of its historic trial in England.

“”What concerns me is not the TPA (agreements with companies belonging to their owners) are companies outside the City Football Group where City expenses are sent. All they do is think about how they can get around the rules and regulations. We have reported this situation to the European Union, supported facts and figures. They placed their losses in different societies and that is what caused their loss. City lies all its expenses to these companies. For example, they have recruitment or marketing companies that accumulate high spending. They invoice Little amounts in Manchester City. This allows Manchester City to have a structure that bypasses the rules. I cannot yet talk about sanctions for Manchester City in this case. All I can say is that when a company in Europe, in general, is considered to have distorted the market, it must often reimburse funds. We want Manchester City to be sanctioned. The case is currently the subject of an investigation. We have not yet received an answer. Remember that the European Commission has many current files. It's not just a question of Manchester City. We complained of Paris Saint-Germain with the European Commission. Taking in Newcastle, we have not yet done anything. We do not have enough data“, He said in remarks relayed by Marca.
