• Two clubs receive half the league's broadcast
income
• Smaller clubs complained over 'extraordinary imbalance'
Real
Madrid and Barcelona are considering sharing more of their television
income with other Spanish teams for the first time since
1996.
All first and second tier clubs will meet today to discuss a new
deal after complaints over the "extraordinary imbalance" which had
left Real and Barcelona receiving around half of the league's
annual €520m (£450m) annual broadcast income.
Javier Tebas, negotiating on behalf of more than a dozen of the
smaller teams, told Bloomberg.com: "We hope to get an agreement.
But it's very complicated: it's like cutting up a cured ham among
42 people."
Tebas said any agreement would involve "a lot of variables"
including television audience and past success.
