Javier Tebas, president of La Liga, has lodged a formal complaint against Manchester City with the European Commission, alleging violations of rules concerning state-owned enterprises. He claims that City has established a corporate structure that allows them to bypass regulatory scrutiny, specifically citing companies in the UAE not directly part of the City Football Group. Tebas argues this arrangement gives City an unfair competitive edge in domestic and European competitions. The complaint is currently under investigation, highlighting the ongoing tensions regarding financial transparency and governance in football.
We have reported Manchester City to the EU. We have the facts and figures. We asked for City to be checked. It's very important that all clubs are subject to the same transparency rules and governance on both the sporting and financial side.
City have a lot of companies in their group which lie outside the City Football Group structure, extra companies where they put their expenses. These other companies lose the money but not the club itself.
