"Some clubs have a debt of €1.8bn, it's not healthy," Paris Saint-Germain president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, has told the media, per RMC Sport.
"Thank God, what we are doing is having zero debt. Of course, we lost money during the Covid pandemic but we have nothing to hide. Other clubs have big debts. And that's the risk, the danger for football.
"Some people had been presidents for many years and left debts for their successors. And that's what happened for many years. It's the danger for football which I believe in.
"We must be careful and worry about it because it is a great danger which can destroy football. We need the rules to protect the clubs, to protect football in Europe from disaster. of these debts in these clubs," Al-Khelaifi concluded.
The PSG chief indirectly jabbed Barcelona without mentioning that we have actually got rid of some part of the debt already – largely due to activating the economic levers.
It's a pity Al-Khelaifi doesn't explain how his club keeps spending huge money on players without breaking the Financial Fair Play rules!
