The dispute over the television rights has no end. Following the announcement of not participating in League 1 and the suspension of the first date of the national championship, Blanquiazul Fund member Remigio Morales Bermúdez referred to the position they are in Alliance of Lima regarding the strike. He also took the opportunity to point out that the Victorian team has no intention of creating a parallel competition to the existing one.
“We don’t want to explore another scenario (a parallel league) because we want to find an agreement,” the Blue and White Fund member told RPP Noticias.
In addition, Morales Bermúdez referred to the precautionary measure issued by the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF), which prohibits national clubs from televising their matches GolPerúand sent a message to the head of the FPF Agustín Lozano.
“There is one measure that is being discussed and it is arbitrary. The FPF and those in charge need to think things through better. It affects the application of those rights,” he added.
FPF replied to the 8 clubs
Following the announcement by the eight clubs (led by Alianza Lima, Universitario and Melgar) that they would not participate in League 1 until the FPF lifted the precautionary measure, Peru’s highest football federation issued a statement, stressing that the teams signing a contract with the consortium, they can televise their games.
“The court that pronounced the interim measure in favor of and against the FPF Media Networks Latin America, Gol TV Latin America and the CFP, provides for the suspension of all actions related to the television rights owned by the FPF without its authorization. For this reason, there is no room for interpretation preventing the operators authorized by the FPF from making the next transmissions that will be coordinated for the league,” the statement said.
