And his latest attack is no exception, with the La Liga. president questioning the Premier League's handling of their case against Manchester City, and taking aim at the FIFA Club World Cup.

La Liga and the Premier League are working together closely to tackle piracy "they contribute a lot to this cause" - but not all is rosy in the relationship.

City were charged in February 2023 with 115 alleged breaches of the Premier League's financial rules but are still awaiting the verdict after the hearing concluded last December.

The club deny any wrongdoing, UEFA found City guilty of breaking their Financial Fair Play rules in 2020 but the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturned their twoyear European ban, reduced their fine from 30m euros to 10m euros and cleared them of "disguising equity funds as sponsorship contributions".

Tebas has questioned the strength of the English top flight's financial regulations.
