大意:
皇马与巴萨联合谴责昨日西甲宣布CVC资金投资27亿欧元的作法,
原因是皇马声称这项交易是未经过他们知情而通过的。
但更重要的理由是CVC的投资协议中,绑订了50年的转播权利金。
换句话说,只要拿了CVC的钱,
皇马与巴萨这两只可以自行营销转播的球队,
就只能乖乖听西甲的分成与限制,
这对这两只超级豪门来说是完全不利的。
但也因为巴萨拒绝了西甲的举动,
在不拿CVC资金的情况下,
不但不可能签梅西,
甚至连今年签下来的德佩、阿奎罗都不能注册。
所以才有凌晨官宣不续约的举动,
让西甲在即将到来的转播权利金谈判,
遭受到重大的挑战。
这等于是跟西甲全面开战了,
感觉这剧情都可以拍影集了。

新闻原文
Real Madrid and Barcelona united on Friday to criticise La Liga’s agreement
to sell 10 percent of its business to private equity firm CVC Capital
Partners for 2.7 billion euros ($4.3 billion).
The deal, the first of its type by a major European league, values La Liga at
24.2 billion euros.
La Liga will, however, retain the management of TV rights.
“This agreement was reached without the involvement or knowledge of Real
Madrid and today, for the first time, La Liga has given us limited access to
the terms of the agreement,” said Real in a statement, adding the operation’
s structure was “deceitful”.
“The clubs have signed over their audiovisual rights exclusively for their
sale on a competitive basis for a period of three years.
“This agreement, by way of a misleading structure, expropriates 10.95% of
the clubs’ audiovisual rights for the next 50 years, in breach of the law.”
The club added: “This opportunistic fund is the same which tried and failed
to reach similar agreements with the Italian and German leagues.”
The agreement with CVC was seen as a welcome boost to clubs whose finances
have taken a hit due to the pandemic and with games played in empty stadiums.
Barcelona, still reeling from the news that Lionel Messi will quit the club
after 20 years, said the plan “has not been sufficiently discussed with the
clubs (the owners of the TV rights).
“FC Barcelona feels it is inappropriate to sign a half-century agreement
given the uncertainties that always surround the football world.”
A May report by European football governing body UEFA predicted the continent
’s top-flight clubs are expected to suffer losses of more than eight billion
euros due to the impact of the pandemic due to lower gate receipts, broadcast
revenues and fewer sponsorship deals.
According to sports daily Marca, heavily indebted Barcelona could get 270
million euros as a result of the agreement with CVC while Real Madrid would
collect 261 million euros.
