LIGA - La Liga President Tabas: "Messi? Thayt's impossible"
La Liga president Javier Tebas claimed the only way Manchester City could sign Lionel Messi is through 'financial doping'.
"He won't be able to sign on the previous conditions, that's impossible," said Tebas. "I don't think any European club would be able to pay that amount. Manchester City have lost €270m during the Covid-19 pandemic so obviously they wouldn't even consider signing Messi on his old salary.
"If they do, it will be the financial doping. I've told Guardiola this too. I've directly said that to him, 'would you have won as many titles without as much economic doping?' When the CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport) let off Manchester City there was a lot of comments about that. (Jose) Mourinho and all these other coaches said this. If this happens, I think it would be absolutely incredible.
"This is the sort of governance where we should establish minutes. This economic doping is what is really damaging football. It is not real money that's involved because it is not generated by the clubs. If the money in the football industry isn't generated by football, it just causes inflation. And it's a bad type of inflation. Then it just ruins football because the clubs have to put in all this effort which is well above their financial capacity.
"We need to really fight against this and we will continue to do this all the time. This is one of our pending issues in European football and if it's not solved soon it could lead us to a very complicated financial situation."
