Javier Tebas He continues to err and error with his fashion theme: piracy. The president of the Liga systematically diverts the focus on the quality of its competition, accusing a good part of its followers of being criminals for not wanting to pay the exorbitant prices in Spain. The head of the club association in Spain wanted to explain the reason why we have the most expensive football in Europe on television.
“If pirates consumed it legally, prices would go down”Tebas ventured to affirm that he recently claimed that the League stopped receiving 700 million annually because people opt for pirated football. “If this piracy situation does not change in two years, audiovisual rights will decrease and clubs will disappear,” added the president of the League.
The reality is that The price to watch football in Spain is the most expensive of the five major leagues. While Tebas insists on blaming piracy, Movistar It charges its clients 109.90 euros per month to watch the entire League, the Champions League and the Copa del Rey. The president acknowledged that they have “a team of 50 people” working in the fight against piracy and that they have discovered that these illegal broadcasts also broadcast “other competitions” such as the Premier League.
However, the price to see the english league through Sky Sportsthe medium that has the rights in the country, is 90 euros per month. It is worth mentioning that the salary in British lands is much higher than in Spain. In Italy, emissions are distributed between DAZN y Sky Italia and its price is around 65 euros per month, while in France it goes down to 40 and can be seen between Amazon Prime y Canal+ and in Germany it ranges between 50 and 60 euros per month.

Thebes diverts attention
But Javier Tebas continues to divert attention towards piracy instead of lowering prices so that more people can enjoy the League, because according to him “it is not We can expect the price of Orange or Movistar to be lowered without knowing how many people are going to pay it». “It’s very easy to say ‘if you lower it, they’re going to pay more,’” added the president, who cited an example from Mexico where he assures that “the segment of the population that pirates the most is the upper class.”
“Us we have studies from all countries in the worldbut Spain is studying the issue. In Mexico, for example, the segment of the population that pirates the most is the upper class, curiously. Because? Because this has already become ‘why am I going to pay, even if it’s 10 euros, if I can watch it for free?’” he said in his speech at Marca Sport Weekend.
The head of the Spanish league acknowledged that they have «a team of 50 people dedicated only to the fight against piracyday and night dedicated to this. We also have a group of Hackers who work for good, who are the ones who discover everything that may exist in the world of illegal emissions. Tebas explained that this happens with other competitions: “Normally, they are not just ours, they are from other competitions.”
