BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona's CEO has said the club supported the European Super League to enforce tighter financial controls on teams as UEFA's financial fair play (FFP) model plays into the hands of state-backed clubs such as Paris St Germain and Manchester City.

UEFA launched the FFP regulations in 2009 to aim to stop clubs running big losses through spending on players although the organisation relaxed the rules following the COVID-19 pandemic, removing the obligation to break even https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/sports/psgs-signing-messi-rekindles-debate-uefa-ffp-rules-2021-08-12.

Abu Dhabi-controlled City, meanwhile, paid a Premier League record 100 million pounds to sign Jack Grealish from Aston Villa. "For us the Super League was about creating a more attractive competition oriented around the issue of FFP. We have to make a deep reflection on what happened this summer," Ferran Reverter told a news conference on Wednesday.

"It is time to question the old ways and the traditional measures," he said."It is now time to seriously work together to put in place a true direct cost control system."
