While Frank McCourt complained about the appearance of Qatar and Saudi Arabia in football, Daniel Riolo shares the analysis of the owner of OM.

Questioned by France 24, Frank McCourt criticized the investment of states like Qatar or Saudi Arabia with which it is impossible to compete: “It's more difficult, that's for sure. With my wife, we are nothing compared to a State. Of course it's a challenge […] America is considered a very capitalist state, but in sports leagues, we try to have fair competition, while in Europe which is considered a form of more social capitalism, football is the far west! Reforms are needed ”. And obviously, Daniel Riolo is of the same opinion.

Riolo validates McCourt's rant

“There was control, even if one can criticize Financial Fair Play. But, nevertheless, something has been done. There has never been the feeling that we have today, after everything that has happened around the Super League, that PSG and City have their hands free to do whatever they want. . We have had this feeling for six months. And yes, it bothers me and, more generally, it bothers. Without control it is impossible. The question also arises with Newcastle and its new investors ”, launches the journalist at the microphone of RMC.
