La Liga have filed complaints to UEFA regarding Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain for “continuously breaching” financial fair play regulations.
Their initial complaint was made in April against City and it has been followed up with another complaint against PSG.
A statement from La Liga read: “La Liga this week filed a complaint with UEFA against PSG, which will join another against Manchester City in April, for understanding that these clubs are continuously breaching the current financial fair play regulations.
“La Liga considers that these practices alter the ecosystem and the sustainability of football, harm all European clubs and leagues, and only serve to artificially inflate the market, with money not generated in football itself.
“La Liga understands that the irregular financing of these clubs is carried out, either through direct injections of money or through sponsorship and other contracts that do not correspond to market conditions or make economic sense.
“The complaints against Manchester City before UEFA were made in April and this last week the one corresponding to PSG has been presented, although it is not ruled out that in the coming days extensions of some of these complaints will be made with the contributions of new data.”
La Liga added that they are looking to use the French legislature and the European Union to take “administrative and judicial actions”.
Manchester City and PSG have been investigated before for allegedly breaching FFP regulations.
Both clubs were fined in 2014 and had transfer spending limited, but a ruling to ban City from European competitions due to “serious breaches” was overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
La Liga president Javier Tebas has long rallied against the financial power of the state-owned clubs.
