Jaume Roures is one of the most authorised voices to speak of the Spanish football. The rights of television have run of his charge during long. The partner and founder of Mediapro spoke this Monday in the World Football Summit and has wanted to refer to what would happen with the Barça in a hypothetical independence.
In some statements that collects 'ACE', Roures gave his point of view on the Catalan conflict and the possibility that the Barcelona abandon LaLiga if it declares the independence: "it Is a subject that would have to resolve the Government and I, as Zidane, do not conceive the possibility of a League without Barcelona and Madrid, independently of what occur politically speaking. Barça and Madrid is like a relation of love-hate. They need they, needs them LaLiga and needs it the Spanish sport".
"I do not imagine me LaLiga without Madrid or Barça" The economic reasons are the main: "it would not be the same if the Classical did not have the repercussion that has. It is not only the one who sees here and was, but it goes further. We, together with LaLiga, organise public viewings in several places of the world. It is surprising to see to thousands of people in a descampado seated to live this party as if it was his life. It surprises you and it stimulates you because there is a rooting of the product and of the competition importantísimo, further of the figures of audience súper millionaire".
The future of LaLiga
Roures Has wanted to do an assessment dand "LaLiga has achieved to position in the world behind the Premier. There is three big products in the world of the football: Premier, LaLiga and Champions. The audiences have increased in the TV, as well as in the stadiums. In the future immediate can surpass the 2 billion of income. Now we are in 1.600 roughly, so that we situate us.
It has wanted to it compare with other competitions: "The NBA ingresa 2.600 roughly and the Premier ingresa more and always will do it. Has a colonial history in important Asia, that is where there is money and audiences. For me they go by here the shots".
