The City of Justice of Valencia experienced this Monday the first trial of Peter Lim’s management, Valencia’s top shareholder, which among other things served to reveal one of the best kept secrets in the Mestalla club in recent years: the president’s salary Anil Murty. The manager receives 460,000 euros gross plus supplements for housing and schooling, health insurance and some flights to Singapore.
The trial was held after the lawsuit a little over a year ago from the Libertad VCF platform, which, in addition to grouping thousands of actions, has forced the club to provide that and other information that its lawyers revealed at Monday’s hearing. The opponents ask for the annulment of the agreement of the board of directors to contract a loan of 16.5 million with Lim’s company “for abusive and for incurring a conflict of interest”; also to declare null the agreement that approved that the salaries of Senior Management could reach 1.5% of the consolidated net amount of the club’s turnover as it is contrary to the complicated economic situation of the entity and that the modification to raise from 11 shares to 3,598 those necessary to attend these meetings “for being abusive and serving exclusively the interest of the largest shareholder.”
His thesis is simple. All these agreements were made seeking Lim’s benefit and not that of the company itself, in addition to having incurred a conflict of interest in the matter of the loan.
Besides of murthy’s salaryLibertad VCF’s lawyer also revealed that the four players whose rights were initially pledged in the loan operation were Mouctar Diakhaby, Gabriel Paulista, Ferran Torres and Geoffrey Kondogbia and that after leaving these last two entered Daniel Wass and Gonçalo Guedes.
For his part, the Valencia lawyer questioned that an association representing 23 people wants to impose its way of managing a company over the majority shareholder and defended the legality of the decisions in question. In addition, he requested that the costs be calculated on the 16 million euros of the Lim’s loan to Valencia.
