Tebas: "The Super League wants us to be its vassals"

FC Barcelona and Real Madrid would enter 400 million euros more, up to 874 and 847 million, with the European project

MADRID, 2 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The president of LaLiga, Javier Tebas, denounced that the Super League project wants domestic competitions to be its "vassals" and warned that it would destroy them "in the medium term" apart from enriching clubs like Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, in the presentation of the conclusions of the KPMG 2022 expert report on the reduction of income in LaLiga.

"The Super League is not a competition format, it is an excuse, an ideological concept that was born in the year 2000, inspired, devised and led by the president of Real Madrid, who wants the big European clubs to be the ones in charge. It is very detrimental to the national leagues, and would destroy them in the medium term and the fans of the Spanish clubs," he said at a press conference held at the CEOE headquarters in Madrid.

In an act, together with the general director of LaLiga, Javier Gómez, and the director of Tourism, Culture and Sports of the CEOE, Inmaculada Benito, Javier Tebas said that "'if the question is: can the model of the leagues be transferred national teams to the Super League? The answer is 'no'".

"And it would mean the ruin not only of the Spanish clubs but of the rest of the Europeans. When the greats disagree, they do not go to the assembly, they say that it seems expensive to travel to Dubai and they want us to be their vassals. The model is more than semi-open It is quasi-closed," stressed the president of the club association.

According to the KPMG study, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid would enter 400 million more euros between them and would go from the 675 and 735 planned for this 2022-23 academic year to 874 and 847 million with the Super League project, since they would see each other "penalized" for the impairment of the value of the Champions League and LaLiga.

For their part, the rest of the LaLiga Santander clubs would lose "55 percent" and would see their income reduced from 3,210 million to 2,401 in this year. The impact on audiovisual rights would be 64 percent and a decrease of 1,208 million in the case of playing the matches on the weekend. If they had to be played during the week, it would amount to 69.2 percent and about 1,301 million less would be received.
