Wasn't the decision on Valverde going to came after the season? Meaning he might miss the start of 2023/24.

You're right.

As reported by the Spanish media Mundo Deportivo, an investigating judge was appointed and is still in that phase. "As established by the Disciplinary Code, within a period not exceeding 30 days you must make the statement of charges," explains the newspaper and points out that the deadline was met on May 20.

After this, there will be an instance of ten working days in which those involved have to present their allegations to defend their "rights or interests". According to the media, that is the moment in which the procedure is.

Finally, the Committee must decide whether to grant the judge's request and will have 10 days to do so, so the resolution and its sanction, if any, would not be for this season and would be fulfilled in the next.

Tebas is ruining his league. If you don't allow teams to make investements in form of loans to buy good players, your league loses public attention and income. It's the same reason, why Laporta didn't just stop buying players until the debt is payed. If you lose your success, you lose your income and ability to pay off those debts and then you're in even a bigger struggle than before. Only a matter of time until France and Germany catch up with LaLiga with Tebas as president.

Madrid are also taking LaLiga to court over the new camera footage (can't find the right words off head) and the distribution of tv rights related to it.

They are the only club not allowing access and are, today, losing 13m euros in tv rights income from it.

Another case of LaLiga caring more about cosmetic changes than quality changes.

And the funny part (or sad) is, that Tebas promised all ffp problems gone for those teams that sign his cvc deal. Most of those teams signed his deal and here we are, blancos excluded, on the same spending level than dwarf leagues like dutch or portuguese. If the teams reelect Tebas again, they can take shovels and start digging their own graves.

Look at Villarreal. I wonder if it is by effect or by design.

A % of CVC was meant to be used towards marketing, visual, renovations and they renovated their stadium.

They win the EL with -10m NET spend. The season after they invest for their CL campaign with -45m NET spend but reach the CL Semi final. So in theory, a positive season.

Yet since then, they have had to tow the FFP line and needed to sell. Last season +25m NET income. This Summer just under 90m NET income.

So again, you have a case of a team that in another league would be investing in their team, yet they are forced to actually regress after making an investment for CL competitiveness, where that investment itself should be covered by EL+CL, prize money and rights income.

And for the last two seasons as consequence they are selling without re-investment.

And while there's the Stadium rebuild costs to account, the point of CVC was to allow those investments for clubs long term benefit without it hurting their FFP capabilities short term. Which hasn't been the case.

---

Then there is Real Socidead. Sell Isak for a huge windfall, and spend 1/1 last summer to make the CL.

This year their CL investment? 0 in transfer fees.

So Tebas will point to the sustainability of the league, but the reality is LaLiga are just telling Europe that the league provides no financial benefit for qualifying for the CL, nor does the added income of the CL actually benefit investment because the club can be negatively impacted more by missing the CL the season after if income contracts.

Austerity is never the answer, tebas is an idiot, we all know this

Thankfully our management team was smart enough to not go that route.

What's happening with Villarreal as porque said makes zero sense
