LaLiga's Tebas keeps legal pressure on PSG and questions Al-Khelaïfi's power play
July 29 - La Liga boss Javier Tebas has continued his assault on French giants Paris Saint-Germain and their president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi over alleged breaches of Financial Fair Play rules which he says , not only violate UEFA rules, but also European Union competition rules. .
LaLiga has already opened legal action against PSG in France, but Tebas said LaLiga will also take the case to competition courts in Switzerland and Brussels.
In a video interview, Tebas said "...the PSG issue is a medium to long-term process. We have opened up various avenues of action. One is through the French courts; they don't have not granted an injunction, but we knew it would be very difficult. But we will continue to take legal action against PSG there.
On breaches of UEFA's Financial Fair Play rules, Tebas said La Liga had "taken the UEFA route".
Al-Khelaïfi has previously been targeted by Swiss prosecutors, but was twice cleared by a Swiss federal court on corruption charges in the long-running saga over the awarding of World Cup TV rights.< /p>
Al-Khelaifi was acquitted of inciting former FIFA Secretary General Jérôme Valcke to commit criminal mismanagement.
Valcke and Al-Khelaifi have been accused of a secret 'corrupt deal' over beIN's acquisition of media rights in North Africa and the Middle East for the 2026 and 2030 World Cups. It has been alleged that Al-Khelaifi had promised to buy a luxury villa in Sardinia for 5 million euros, granting its exclusive use to Valcke in exchange for FIFA favoring beIN's rights offer.
Since then, Al-Khelaïfi's roles in football have multiplied, growing from a mere broadcast executive to a seat at the top of UEFA. It is his increased influence in European football and within UEFA that worries Tebas who believes it is distorting the game of European clubs.
"We will also be taking action in the Swiss courts, as we believe there is a very significant conflict of interest in relation to the PSG president," Tebas said.
“Chairman of beIN SPORTS, a company that buys the rights from UEFA. Chairman of ECA, a body within UEFA for clubs, and member of the UEFA Executive Committee. many hats for one person."
