Betis and Paris Saint Germain are summoned next Wednesday in the Court of Arbitration for Sport. This is presented in the organism’s agenda, which indicates that the face-to-face between Sevillians and Parisians will be the first of the day, although it is not yet confirmed that it will be in person since appearances by videoconference will be allowed.
And the matter to be discussed is none other than the amounts that PSG claims from Betis for the transfer of Argentine Lo Celso to Tottenham. When Lo Celso signed for Betis, PSG saved 20% of the pulse value of a future transfer. Nevertheless, Betis transferred Lo Celso to Tottenham in the summer of 2019 for 16 million euros and londoners in January they exercised the purchase option they were managing, paying 32 million more. That is why while Betis defends that the capital gain that must be paid is only that of the 32 million that Tottenham paid for taking over Lo Celso in property, PSG claims that the operation was a disguised transfer and that the capital gain must be calculated based on a total of 48 million euros.
In summary, that PSG is currently claiming six million euros from Betis, which may be key to the movements that the Helipolitan entity intends to make in January. The CAS will issue a sentence.
