Spanish FA to accuse PSG of violating financial fair play

CAIRO – 3 August 2017: Spanish FA will accuse French football team Paris Saint- Germain of abusing the financial fair play rule due to the offer they plan to send for Barcelona’s winger Neymar in the next few days.

According to Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol, the Spanish FA will reject the offer submitted by PSG regarding Barcelona’s winger Neymar because the offer abuses the financial fair play rule.

Citing from Sky Sports website, “Neymar’s deal is worth nearly £450 million ($594.7 million), which includes wages, bonuses and a buyout clause of £198 million. Neymar has been offered a basic salary of £26.8 million a year after tax, around £515,000 a week.”
