Javier Tebas says it has hurt LaLiga to lose Lionel Messi but pinned the blame at the door of Barcelona for refusing to accept a contentious financial arrangement.
LaLiga has struck a €2.7billion (£2.3bn) deal with CVC Capital Partners, one that will see the private equity firm acquire 10 per cent of the commercial business.
In turn, the other 90 per cent of the investment would be used to help cash-strapped clubs across the top two tiers of Spanish football as they cope with the long-term financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
Both Madrid and Barca have spoken out against the proposal, while on Wednesday the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) insisted it was totally illegal.

European champions Madrid were largely inactive during the window, the return of Alvaro Morata for €30million their only major piece of business.

Tottenham Hotspur have made their first signing of 2020 and also the first signing since the arrival of Jose Mourinho as their manager. It was not a big surprise to see it was a player from Portuguese Primeira liga, as Spurs signed Gedson Fernandes on loan from Benfica. Now, he could be going after another Portuguese player.
