Barcelona president Joan Laporta says reports that Javier Tebas could be set to lose his job as La Liga president is “not good news” as relations between the two are improving.
The Sports Arbitration Tribunal (TAD) has opened an investigation into Tebas for disclosing confidential financial information about Barcelona, as reported by ARA.
The news comes after a complaint was made against Tebas by Miguel Galán, who is the president of CENAFE (the Spanish Confederation of Football Players).
If found guilty
there’s a variety of sanctions he may face, including being removed from his position as La Liga chief.
Laporta has been asked about the situation and wasn’t too happy to hear that Tebas could lose his job.
“I believe that at this moment, the possible disqualification of Javier Tebas is not good news. Our problems have been resolved and the relations are getting better and better,” he told El Suplement.
Mundo Deportivo report that Tebas’s actions “caused economic and reputational damage to FC Barcelona” and suggest penalties range from a reprimand, suspension or dismissal.
