Spanish league president Tebas on Asian supporters, Super League fallout

Madrid, Jun 17 (EFE).- The inclusion of a good player from a country like Thailand would be an “interesting” move for Spanish football, LaLiga president Javier Tebas told Efe Thursday during the Agency’s Sport Business Days forum. FOOTAGE OF EFE'S INTERVIEW WITH JAVIER TEBAS. SOUNDBITES OF TEBAS.Translation:1-We would like a Thai player. Thailand is a place where we have pay-per-view and freeview broadcasts, and a big following, bigger than we could imagine, a good player from Thailand would be interesting for LaLiga.2-The discussion about whether Uefa acts from a position of monopoly or not... Without going into detail, there are aspects of UEFA I criticise, of the European institutions that need to improve and I can agree with them in that, that matters of governance need to improve, but not that there is a monopoly. The ones I think have a monopoly are the clubs that announced the Super League because they have a very important structure in the European industry.
