Representatives of clubs, excluding Real Madrid, Barcelona and Athletic, demand that Minister Iceta can revoke the license of those participating in competitions not recognized by the FEF, UEFA and FIFA
Moderate optimism among the representatives of the professional clubs, all except Real Madrid, Barcelona and Athletic, after the more than two-hour meeting they held this Monday with the political authorities to try to unblock a border situation and a strike in football avoid Spanish with the Superliga as the background of the controversy.
LaLiga’s Delegate Committee, plus President Javier Tebas and Vice President Quico Catalán, have handed over the need to recover to Culture and Sports Minister Miquel Iceta and to the Supreme Rector of the Higher Sports Council, José Manuel Franco . the withdrawn amendments of the PP that mainly affect this new European competition that Real Madrid and Barça want, the economic agreement with the CVC fund and the sale of television rights.
The clubs have conveyed to the Executive their concerns and unease about the current situation in the processing of the Sports Law, recognizing that if this proceeds, it will affect the legal certainty of the joint marketing of the assets of the First and Second Division teams in and It would facilitate the birth of the Super League, supported by Florentino Pérez and Joan Laporta, top leaders of the two greats.
They understand that if there is no turning back, neither the Federation nor LaLiga could refuse to license a club that participates in a competition not recognized by UEFA or FIFA. Club representatives are pushing for dialogue, though they continue to threaten not to rule out other measures if talks do not go ahead.
At the end of the summit, Pepe Castro, Quico Catalán and Amaia Gorostiza, senior leaders of Levante, Seville and Eibar, were responsible for attending to the media and launching messages of relative optimism. They feel that the minister realizes that they are right in their claims and are confident that the situation will turn around from now on.
“From the government, they have listened to our requests and the changes that need to be made to avoid harming the clubs. The minister is going to study it quietly. Spanish football has created one of the most powerful leagues in the world and there should be no obstacles to its growth,” emphasizes the Andalusian team leader.
“Why do they only listen and believe the usual?” Tebas wondered, unequivocally referring to Florentino Pérez, after learning that the PP had withdrawn the amendment that would allow LaLiga and the FEF to license a club. refuse if it takes part in a competition not recognized by national, European or international associations. They feel betrayed after the withdrawal, a day before the vote, by the PP of the opinions they had agreed with the PSOE on the sports law.
Most clubs see their sources of income at risk, especially their nearly €2,000 million deal with CVC Capital Partners and a setback in the Spanish league as the Superliga is born. They hope to meet opposition leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo and convince him to backtrack on what they see as a boycott of LaLiga’s work.
