. When Mediapro acquired TV rights for La Liga in 2007, it involved a controversial legal battle with rivals Prisa in what was labelled ‘The Football War’.

The latter was involved in a long legal dispute in which Roures accused Rosell of spying on him and gathering “over 14,000” personal emails. In 2020, Spanish courts closed the case because of insufficient evidence.

The main difference they have compared to Premier League clubs is only they don’t have an owner behind to put money in. In England, the partners of the clubs are millionaires who contribute with funding. Maybe you could call that their ‘lever’, too.
