Two other LaLiga clubs expressed their rejection of the precautionary measure granted by the Superior Sports Council (CSD) to FC Barcelona for the registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor. Just as Atlético de Madrid and UD Las Palmas did, Espanyol and Valencia joined the complaints of the association, expressing their concern over a decision they consider arbitrary and dangerous for the future of the competition.
In this regard, the 'pericos' state that the CSD's precautionary measure "has created a very dangerous precedent", since the resolution discredited the position of LaLiga and the RFEF regarding financial regulations. "The Sports Law itself includes and protects this economic control of LaLiga and, however, with this resolution, the approved and accepted rule by all professional clubs is put at risk", Espanyol states in its statement.
For its part, Valencia also asserts in its statement that the CSD's resolution "is detrimental to the integrity of the competition", as it "puts at risk the fundamental pillars of the economic management of professional football". Similarly, the 'che' team believes that this measure will set a precedent against LaLiga's financial 'Fair Play', "a regulation that has been key to ensuring the financial sustainability of Spanish football".
The registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor will also be discussed in Congress
Furthermore, 'AS' reported that the Popular Party (PP) will present a series of questions in Congress, directed at the Minister of Education and Sports, Pila Alegría, to have the Government justify the CSD's precautionary measure in favor of the registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor. For the PP, it is "a governmental decision without precedent that overrides the criteria of the RFEF and LaLiga".
On Friday morning, Atlético de Madrid and Las Palmas were the first clubs to issue statements against the CSD's preliminary ruling. The Council has a maximum period of three months to make a final decision. Meanwhile, the association and its clubs may present various legal instruments to annul the precautionary measure. Javier Tebas will take the first step, with an appeal to the Administrative Court.
