Qatari tycoon Nasser al-Khelaifi, who is the president of the Paris Saint-Germain football club, stated in an exclusive interview with POLITICO that the European governing body of the sport, UEFA, was planning to investigate Barcelona in the wake of the contentious sale of commercial assets by Barcelona over the course of the summer.  This news comes in the wake of the sale of commercial assets by Barcelona over the course of the summer.

The financially troubled Catalan club made hundreds of millions of euros during the summer that just ended thanks to the sale of portions of its digital content arm to investment funds and a cryptocurrency company, respectively.  The sale of future TV rights also contributed to the club's revenue during the summer.  Because of the sell-off, Barcelona was able to spend a significant amount of money on top new players while still adhering to the stringent financial rules that are in place in Spanish football.  These rules govern how much a club can spend on new players while still remaining in compliance with the regulations.

On the other hand, detractors, with al-Khelaifi at the head of the line, have accused Barcelona of irresponsibly selling off its family silver, potentially violating the financial regulations of European football, and establishing a precedent that could have unfavorable repercussions in the future.  Incorrect; that is not how things ought to be done. . . Is it legal? The statement "I'm not sure" was made by Al-Khelaifi in reference to the asset sale that Barcelona was planning, and it implied that regulatory authorities would conduct an investigation.  He asserted that similar behavior could be expected from other people if they were provided with the same opportunities.  Assuming that doing so is permitted.  The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) has its very own internal regulations that govern financial matters.  These regulations were created in-house.

These comments represent an escalation in the feud that has been going on between PSG and the football establishment in Spain, which has been going on for quite some time.  Regarding the ownership of Paris Saint-Germain by a Qatari state-backed organization, which contributes astronomical sums of money, the domestic league of the latter has threatened to file a complaint regarding the matter with the European Union.  As a direct consequence of the support provided by the government of Qatar to the ownership of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), the club is provided with extremely large sums of money.  There is a simultaneous holding of each of these positions.

On Friday, al-Khelaifi had already criticised Barcelona in a roundabout way by stating that the recently implemented rules for financial sustainability are an encouraging new development.  This was his way of implying that Barcelona was not doing enough to ensure its own financial stability.  During that time, he was giving a speech to the heads of clubs hailing from a variety of countries located in Europe.  A course of action that involves dangerously high levels of debt and opaque equity transactions is not one that can be kept up over the long term.

The Qatari executive's anger was sparked in particular by Barcelona's decision to sell 25 percent of its unprofitable digital content arm for the sum of €100 million to a firm managed by the founder of Mediapro, which two years ago precipitated a crisis in French sports news by defaulting on TV rights payments.  The Qatari executive's ire was sparked by Barcelona's decision to sell 25 percent of its unprofitable digital content arm.  The decision made by Barcelona to sell 25 percent of its unprofitable digital content arm was the impetus for the Qatari executive's anger toward Barcelona.  The ECA held their general assembly here a week ago, and this hotel served as the location for the event.  He went into greater depth on a variety of topics, including the path that football will take in Europe over the next few years, allegations that the multiple roles he plays in the sport create a conflict of interest, and the possibility of a second tier of the Super League.  He went into more depth on topics such as the trajectory that football will take in Europe over the next few years.

The ECA arranged for the chief executive officer of Formula One to give a presentation to the general assembly in order to broaden the appeal of football as a sport.  This was done in an effort to broaden the appeal of football as a sport.  Al-Khelaifi was ecstatic about the possibility that football could learn new strategies from motor racing, a sport that has seen a meteoric rise in popularity as a direct result of its collaboration with Netflix.  Al-Khelaifi's excitement stemmed from the fact that football could potentially learn new strategies from motor racing.  Al-Khelaifi was overjoyed at the prospect that football might be able to pick up some new strategies from the world of motor racing.

He stated that we need to think outside the box because we have the sport that is regarded as being the best, the largest, and the most popular in every single country in the entire world.  Because of this, the sport would be able to generate more revenue and attract a larger audience.  Getting the most out of these opportunities will allow one to successfully complete the task at hand.  According to what he said, this circumstance would be comparable to the one in which cities are obligated to pay for this.

However, he did issue a word of caution, saying that we should also be careful what changes we're making in football because we need to respect our fans.  He said that we should be careful what changes we're making in football because we need to respect our fans.  Those individuals who are interested in sports for the sake of themselves are the most ardent detractors of the controversial proposal for the Super League.  This plan intended to establish a club competition that would compete with the UEFA Champions League, but in the end, it was unsuccessful in gaining traction in the market and did not accomplish its goal.

 

Complaints in connection with a number of different conflicts

 

  1. POLITICO spoke with a number of senior ECA officials, including Al-Khelaifi, and not a single one of them was confident that the Super League would be brought back in a different iteration

  2.  This was due to the massive popular backlash that the rebel league encountered upon its launch in April of 2021

  3.  This was the reason for this

  4.  This event served as the impetus for making this choice

  5.  Additional citations are required

  6.  It is absolutely necessary for us to take into account the requirements of others in addition to our own requirements

  7.  According to him, The Super League was only about themselves, and he added that he would never take part in a project of that nature

  8.  He also stated that The Super League was only about themselves

  9.  He vowed that he would never participate in an endeavor of that kind again

  10.  



BeIN Media Group, which spends millions of dollars for the TV rights to screen French sports news and UEFA competitions, spends the most significant amount of money on the conflict of interest allegations leveled against al-Khelaifi by his detractors because of his position as chairman of the company.  These allegations have been brought up because of al-Khelaifi's position as chairman of the company.  Because al-Khelaifi serves as the chairman of the company, these allegations have surfaced as a direct result of his position.  He insisted that there had never been a time in his life when he had taken advantage of his position or leveraged it in any way, and that this was something that he could never remember doing.  In addition to this, Al-Khelaifi brought up the fact that the ECA and UEFA had come together to form a marketing partnership.  He said that Nasser would not be the one to go into the market and sell the rights, but that someone else would be doing so instead.  He did not specify who that someone else would be.  On the other hand, we are putting a lot of pressure on them to raise the price, and they are responding favorably.  beIN suffers a loss, and the situation may even be considered harmful, whenever ECA succeeds in driving up the costs of the rights.
