Nelio Lucas as CEO Doyen Sports, one of the companies that provide services to third-party ownership (TPO) aka third-party ownership in football, strongly opposed the plan FIFA and UEFA to ban the practice of the TPO.
According to him, TPO will only make the Premier League richer and make other leagues are getting poorer and thus potentially causing financial gaps in football.
"Football is an enormous business. However, not all can enjoy it, only a handful of clubs alone, "said Lucas Neilo in a seminar that discusses TPO in Madrid, Thursday (9/4).
"The Premier League is very proud of their financial strength, but for us it is not funny. English clubs have a different reality television rights because of their height. Their supremacy is really great. "
"So, the EPL will oppose TPO to maintain their position. Rich clubs already created a tool such as the Financial Fair Play to protect their positions. Now, they want to eliminate mechanisms such as TPO, whereas TPO enable poorer clubs to compete at the highest level, "he explained.
Atletico Madrid became one of the clubs who benefited by this TPO mechanism. Club president Miguel Angel Gil Marin calling plans the elimination of TPO by FIFA will make Atletico trouble competing at the highest level.
"What does FIFA, with the provocation of the Premier League, it is not fair. In 2008, Atletico are looking for investment overseas players through Quality Sports International and Doyen Sports. Thanks to them, Atletico were able to survive in the midst of a bad economy in Spain and won seven trophies in recent years, "said Gil Marin.
