SPAIN (Agencies) The Secretary of State for Sport, Jaime Lissavetzky (photo), yesterday called on the Liga de Fútbol Profesional (LFP) to "sit down ad talk" instead of going ahead with its planned stoppage for the first weekend in April. Many clubs are in a delicate financial position: in all, they owe €694 million in tax payments, while similar debt to Social Security is yet to be announced. Among other things such as the length of TV contracts, the clubs are complaining that they do not get any proportion of taxes on betting, while the stoppage, according to Lissavetzky, "will only impact on the citizenry and the footballers."
