"We can confirm that the player’s lawyers came to the La Liga offices this morning to deposit the clause and that it has been rejected. That’s all the information we are giving out at this moment,” a statement from the league said.Javier Tebas, President of La Liga, has previously stated that the deal would infringe upon financial fair play and has insisted his stance on protecting Spain’s clubs. It has been noted in The Guardian, that under current La Liga regulations, a player must buy himself out of his contract. Marca said La Liga has no legal grounds to reject the payment and PSG and Neymar would be within their rights to ask FIFA to intervene. In this case, Spanish clubs would not be able to reject the money if Neymar himself showed up to pay it. Previously, Tebas has said that the crux of his complaint revolves around the issue of Financial Fair Play.
"Basically, the complaint will be over unfair competition and against teams that receive financial injections from owners that 'gift' players to their fans by taking them away from others. PSG are a clear example of 'financial doping' by club/state."https://twitter.com/SkyKaveh/status/893072848549556224 https://twitter.com/SkyKaveh/status/893073922031222784
