Tebass: If Real Madrid wins 120 million yuan in the Club World Cup, 26 La Liga schedule will be postponed, what will other teams think
La Liga Chairman Tebas was interviewed and talked about topics such as Real Madrid, TV rights, the Golden Globes and the Club World Cup.
Relationship with Florentino
"If I wanted to embrace Florentino well, I would accept invitations to watch the game in the box so that my children would not think I was wrong. But if you want to lead, create wealth and industry, you have to go out of your comfort zone and dare to think differently. The problem with Florentino and I is not personal grudges, but the industry model we represent is completely different. The European Super League he supports will destroy the domestic league. They have launched three different formats in four years, which shows that they are not considering it thoroughly. We face two challenges : Pirates and new events, all threaten the entire ecosystem. "
TV rights issue
"From the fourth place in La Liga to the last place, their income depends heavily on the TV rights... Half of the revenue of the fourth place comes from the broadcast rights, and for teams like Vallecano or Eibar, this proportion may be as high as 95%. Another problem is commercial income, small and medium clubs can grow in this area, we are working hard and have made significant progress. "
Is it possible to be compatible?
"There is no timetable. There is no need to add another event to transfer funds to certain clubs and players. There is no more money here, and the ecosystem must be balanced and cancelled. Staying in the past, playing for only one weekend is impossible, both time and economically,"
The possibility of free La Liga broadcast
"Impossible. Whether it is La Liga, Premier League or Champions League, it is impossible to broadcast for free."
About Barcelona's plan to sign Nico Williams:
"I don't know, but I can say they need to make some moves and see which players... I heard a lot of rumors, but I don't know if it is true."
Does Barcelona comply with the 1-to-1 financial rules?
"Not yet."
Regarding the impact of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the club World Cup on the schedule
"Of course there is an impact. There is a collective agreement here that stipulates a three-week holiday, and La Liga will comply with this. Any other situation requires authorization and consensus from relevant institutions. If Real Madrid or Atletico enters the semi-finals, they will get 120 million euros and we will have to postpone the start time because they will be tired. It's good, but I don't know what other clubs will think."
As a Real Madrid fan, are you excited that Alonso coaches Real Madrid?
"I always look forward to Real Madrid. Whether it's Alonso or Ancelotti... I won't be as disappointed as anyone else. Real Madrid is always hopeful, but sometimes in better shape. There are always players on the team who are not doing well at some point, but they are all players who can win everything. For example, Mbappe, although his performance this season is considered to be a bit ups and downs, he has scored more goals. By the time he really has a good season, he will score more goals."
About Golden Globe candidate
"I think Messi is obviously one of the Golden Globe candidates."
