The president of Ligue 1 says attacks by La Liga over Kylian Mbappe's new Paris St-Germain deal are "unacceptable".

France striker Mbappe, 23, signed a lucrative three-year extension on Saturday, having been strongly linked with a free transfer to Real Madrid.
La Liga called PSG's reported contract offer "scandalous", but Ligue 1 president Vincent Labrune has responded angrily. He said: "Over the past 10 years, La Liga has spent 32% more on players than Ligue 1."

PSG are owned by Qatar Sports Investments, a subsidiary of Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), the state-run sovereign-wealth fund in Qatar.

With Mbappe's contract running out in June, they were desperate to keep him and prepared to offer a £21m net annual salary.

La Liga announced plans to file a complaint to Uefa as well as French and EU authorities after president Javier Tebas described the deal as an "insult to football".

But in a letter to Tebas, Labrune vented the French football governing body's "disapproval and incomprehension" at the outbursts.

"Your attacks on Ligue 1 and one of our clubs Paris St-Germain, and one of our players Kylian Mbappe, are based around your own interpretation of financial unsustainability and competitive imbalance, which you repeatedly attribute to Ligue 1 and one of our clubs," he wrote.

"The fact that you publicly and repeatedly take this position against Ligue 1 on this topic and denigrate our league and our clubs is both unacceptable and manifestly false.

"Two of your clubs, Real Madrid and Barcelona, have broken a multitude of records in the past decade.

"In terms of transfer fees, these two clubs have broken the world record six times. In terms of player salaries, Real Madrid currently has two of the highest-paid players in world football sat on their bench.

"In terms of debt, Barcelona is reported to have a debt level of €1.5bn, and this is despite the European Court of Justice finding that Real Madrid and Barcelona benefitted from illegal state aid."

Can this guy be poached to run the Premier League?

Why is there a question to answer from Uefa ? Nothing to do with them and PSG have the right to offer him a new contract, it's up to him to take it or not and fuck all to do with Uefa or Real Madrid

we all know the real reason, and it's simple Spanish football and the big 2 have no money to spend like the others
20 years of outbidding everybody with wages and transfer fees has caught up with them ? And now have to deal in free transfers or players out of contracts or long term payments and instalments

Wish they would both just appoint a Spanish version of Harry Redknapp* as their managers, go and act how they can afford to act in the market, and shut up ‘n leave us to it

Has-been sh*t-stirrers

Attacked City's multi club business model a month or so ago but only last week didn't see a problem with Nice or PSG being owned by the same people who may own the rags.
Typical slimy, double dealing, chase the money Uefa wanker.

I don’t even like that multi-club business model as a City fan and was really pleased for NAC Breda fans when they protested enough to get their club to not join the CFG.
