LaLiga president Javier Tebas has renewed his attack on Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain, accusing them of breaching financial fair play rules and threatening the future of European football.

Tebas pulled no punches as he disclosed details of the complaints LaLiga has filed with UEFA, claiming City and PSG have broken the rules and he had an ‘obligation’ to say it.

Tebas has been aggravated by Manchester City signing a £51million deal for Erling Haaland and PSG re-signing Kylian Mbappe on a three-year deal worth £650,000 a week.

The outspoken Spaniard accused the two state-owned clubs of inflating sponsorship agreements, making payments overseas to hide costs and running up uncontrolled costs.

‘Normally, sponsorships… and maybe other transactions… they are not done at market value, or fair value, they are inflated value contracts,’ claimed Tebas, speaking to 400 representatives of the European Leagues and associated clubs in Amsterdam.

‘So they can try and fulfil the UEFA financial fair play.’ 

‘Secondly, they pay outside of the country where… the club is… They pay some players outside their country – in this particular case France and England. They take them to their own countries, so they are not part of the… financial control.

‘This means that they could be considered to abide by financial fair play, but these are expenses taken abroad to a different country and it is done via a sponsorship, or holding specific event. A certain player will go… to an event and be paid a very, very high amount.

‘The third way that is characteristic of these state-owned clubs are the losses. They just have high losses.’
