UEFA chief Ceferin: Real Madrid's offer to Mbappe was similar to PSG
UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has hit back at criticism of Kylian Mbappe's new deal at Paris Saint-Germain.
After
Kylian Mbapperejected
Real Madrid'soffer and decided to extend his contract with
Paris Saint Germain, La Liga criticized the deal and said will take legal action against Paris Saint-Germain over an alleged breach of finance rules.
Now, UEFA chief Aleksander Ceferin in response has said to BBC:
"UEFA has financial fair play rules which are quite strict, Whoever will respect our rules is welcome to play in our competitions; who will not respect the rules will not.
"Look not Real Madrid or anyone else will tell Uefa what to do. They are outraged from one point of view and, as much as I know, their offer was similar to [PSG's] offer.”
Ceferin also says there are no reason to change the current ownership rules.
"I've said that many times and I will say it again, tell me one argument why they shouldn't be the owners of a club,"
he said.
"If you say that clubs belong to the fans, don't you think that the other English clubs have owners - they have owners from the United States, some from the Middle East, they have owners from England. So it's exactly the same situation and I'm really tired of these accusations without any concrete grounds.
"I want to know who broke the rules and if you break the rules then you will be punished."
