Galatasaray announced that it will appeal to the TFF Arbitration Board regarding the distribution of broadcasting revenues due to the removal of the championship share in the Süper Lig.
Galatasaray has decided to initiate legal proceedings due to changes in the distribution of broadcasting revenues in the Süper Lig. The yellow-red club will apply to the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) Arbitration Board regarding the removal of the championship share.
"THERE IS A RIGHT THAT HAS BEEN EARNED"
Galatasaray Club Secretary General Eray Yazgan criticized the TFF's decision to eliminate the share given to clubs that have experienced championship in the Süper Lig and to distribute this amount equally among 18 clubs.
Yazgan stated, "There is a right that has been earned here. We have a right due to the 25 championships we have achieved. We will apply for arbitration to ensure the continuation of these revenues. I am sure that Beşiktaş, Fenerbahçe, and Trabzonspor will also make applications."
"IF APPLIED THIS SEASON, THERE WOULD BE A LOSS OF 192 MILLION TL"
Yazgan mentioned that if the decision in question were applied this season, Galatasaray would experience a revenue loss of approximately 192 million TL. He noted that the estimated loss for the next season could be in the range of 260-280 million TL.
"BROADCASTING REVENUE IS 7.9 BILLION TL"
Yazgan stated that the total broadcasting revenue of the Süper Lig for this season is approximately 7.9 billion TL, and that the federation has distributed only 5.7 billion TL of this revenue to the clubs. Yazgan emphasized that there is no federation share in European leagues and that a large portion of broadcasting revenues is distributed to the clubs.
