La Liga president Javier Tebas has said he does not fear being taken to court by France's Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) after he again hit out at Paris Saint-Germain.
Tebas, who in October accused PSG of "cheating economically," said this week it was "indecent" that they were allowed to compete in the Champions League because they were breaching financial fair play (FFP) rules.
Ligue de Football Professionnel president Nathalie Boy de la Tour wrote to Tebas and warned that his "relentless pursuit" of PSG could result in legal action being taken.
"I have a lot of respect for Tebas' work," Boy de la Tour told RMC Sports. "We are unafraid to admit that in Ligue 1, we are looking at what is going on in Spain and finding sources of inspiration.
"On the other hand, to each his own league. I find his relentless pursuit of PSG a bit out of place. I do not interfere with what is going on in Spain, or with Barcelona ... I will ask Javier Tebas to not barge into our league's affairs. Let the European authorities take care of these topics in question
Tebas infuriated his Ligue 1 counterpart with comments he made while speaking in a football debate earlier this week.
"What happens is that the PSG president is also the owner of beIN Sports, which is one of the potential buyers of the Champions League rights," El Mundo reported him as saying. "The conflict of interest is tremendous."
