Javier Tebas admits that he Barcelona sign irregular path to Jules Koundé and Robert Lewandowskitwo key signings in the summer of 2022. According to the League president, “The League could not say no” to the plan that FC Barcelona presented to them with those famous levers, with which Laporta sold the club’s assets with contracts that were subsequently not fulfilled.
It is worth remembering that Barcelona assured that they would earn a lot of money with the Sale of Barça Studios to Orpheus Mediathe company of Jaume Rouresand Libero, the money he would receive in the future and that allowed him to balance his accounts and thus be able to undertake important signings. These additions, like those of Koundé, Lewandowski or Raphinha, greatly improved Xavi’s squad in a Barcelona that ended up winning La Liga that season.
But now Tebas has come to say that this sale of the club’s assets I had a thingbut they are in the League They could not object because Barça signed it “before a notary” and refusing this sale of Barça Studios, despite the doubts it contained, could pose problems: “Those who would not have gone to prison were us”.
“Barcelona did the Libero thing [el fondo que les iba a pagar por 40 millones correspondientes a la compra del 10% de Barça Vision y que no pagaron] on August 30 before a notary with the agreement of the auditor, where Orpheus Media, of Jaume Roures, and Socios.com bought 50% for 60 or 70 million, I don’t remember well. They had paid 10 million euros each,” said Javier Tebas in an interview with Jordi Wild in YouTube.
Although there were doubts about an operation that later turned out to be fakeSince none of the companies that were going to do it paid the agreed amount, Tebas admitted that they had to accept it“The League could not say no to that, it was before a notary, we could not hesitate. If we doubt at that moment, we are the ones who will go to prison,” declared firmly the president of the Spanish competition.
“Then you see that they don’t pay, it penalized them and now they have to recover this money which allowed them at that time to be able to sign Koundé or Lewandowski. This whole operationwho were a hundred and a little millions, is not paid“, stressed Javier Tebas about the current situation in Barcelona.
With these words, Javier Tebas admits that Barcelona was able to sign the two players he mentions, Koundé and Lewandowski, with the money from an operation that “turns out to be unpaid.” That is to say, that the operation was not realbut that the League could not oppose the operation developed by Barcelona because it was “under notary” and had to accept it no matter what.
