City stated it was “surprised” by the league’s fees, with potential punishments together with potential expulsion from the top-flight.
Tebas considers different sides within the Premier League are additionally responsible of comparable offences, talking after a January switch window by which English golf equipment spent closely.
Chelsea broke the British switch file by signing Enzo Fernandez from Benfica for 121 million euros ($130 million), whereas English groups’ spending accounted for practically 80 p.c of all the highest 5 European leagues’ January business.
“I criticised Manchester City (in 2017), saying everything that now it looks like they are going to continue to investigate,” Tebas instructed AFP in Madrid.
“I said it then in 2017, so what surprises me is that it takes so long to make this kind of decision, because we are talking about facts from as far back as 2010.
“This is the problem you have in football, that when you detect a problem, some cheating, in this economic case it takes so long to react.”
Tebas doesn’t suppose the costs will herald a brand new period of monetary management in England.
“I am sceptical because I know that it is not only Manchester City that have similar problems,” he stated.
“There are other Premier League clubs that have also breached their financial regulations and the league is not acting as it should have been acting for years in this respect.”
La Liga’s chief criticised the English prime flight and insisted {that a} potential European Super League wouldn’t be a intelligent method of competing with its riches.
Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus tried to launch a Super League undertaking in April 2021 with 9 different golf equipment, together with six Premier League sides, however the undertaking fell aside in a couple of days amid heavy criticism from followers, soccer governing our bodies and governments.

A22 stated suggestions they obtained advised 60 to 80 golf equipment needs to be included in an open format primarily based on “sporting merit”.
“They aren’t transparent and they aren’t transparent because they don’t want a transparent football, they want a football run only by big clubs,” stated Tebas.
– ‘Super-trap’ –
The 60-year-old dismissed the concept the Premier League is a de facto Super League, an argument utilized by some in favour of a European Super League to rival it.
“When the Super League says that the Premier League is a Super League, they are wrong, it is a super-trap, it is super-debt, it is super-losses of clubs every season, that is what the Premier League has become,” continued Tebas.
“If it was exclusively commercial what was happening in the Premier League, we as leagues would not have much to say because the difference would be two to one, in terms of our business numbers, they could spend double on signings, but they couldn’t spend 20 times more, which they are doing in the recent markets, because they are injecting money at a loss.”
“The Premier League is not the Super League, it’s the super-trap, the super-loss that we have to avoid in the ecosystem of European football too.”
La Liga’s chief believes a European Super League would spell monetary doom for the continent’s soccer ecosystem.
“This would destroy the sporting system that we have created over many years in European sport, but at the same time it would mean not only the sporting but also the economic destruction of the entire European ecosystem,” he defined.
