Surely there would have to be some sort of retribution against them for their treatment of players regarding wages etc. Plus, I see Bordeaux were relegated due to finances yet Barcelona still owe them a fair bit of money for a transfer a few years back. Madness selling so much of their TV rights too, fair enough they are worth a fair chunk now but imagine what that they are missing out on in years to come with the percentage they have gave away. Laporta is a bit of an ego maniac too, read a good article a few weeks back that was interesting on how he views things. He has said that he doesn't want to be seen in the future as someone who steadied the ship or laid the foundations for the future, but that he wants to be the knight in shining armour who turns it all around. It seems that basically he is putting all his eggs into one basket and gambling the lot on the next season. The article can be found at: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62258788
Another thing about La Liga in general, it's mad that when one of their big two doesn't get their own way that the actual league gets involved, it would be a bit like United getting shafted and then the FA reacting like a child about it - why would they care? The most recent thing is La Liga suing PSG over Mbappe - imagine, suing a club for paying their own player. Hypocrites.
