Huang Qian condemned La Liga: "Going overseas" was planned but not implemented, and the cancellation statement was rushed

Regarding the cancellation of the league's overseas plan, one of the participating parties, Villarreal, issued a solemn statement, denounced La Liga's "poor management" and "broken promises", and announced the inside story of the establishment of the project, revealing the ins and outs.

La Liga, as part of its global expansion strategy, proposed that Huang Qian join the overseas game plan this summer and move the home league game against Barcelona to Miami. In order to develop himself and help La Liga, Huang Qian accepted, but there are two requirements: 1. La Liga's project funds will be used to compensate Huang Qian season ticket holders - after all, they are the group that is really affected. The compensation methods include free travel to Miami to watch the game, or refunding part of the season ticket fee; 2. The two participating teams must not obtain any direct economic benefits from it. These funds should be used exclusively to compensate Huang Qian fans, while avoiding injustice to the remaining 18 teams.

With La Liga's approval, Huang Qian started to advance the application. Since receiving the proposal, Huang Qian has been aware of the complexity of the logistical issues of such games, especially those involving intercontinental travel of a large number of fans, so he has repeatedly emphasized to La Liga that it must be planned in advance and properly arranged to meet various needs.

However, La Liga’s preparation and organization were poor, and there was little progress in the logistics plan. Huang Qian expressed serious concerns on many occasions and urged the league to finalize key matters such as game time and travel agency signing as soon as possible. At the same time, Huang Qian originally planned to convene a meeting this Thursday. If the aforementioned issues cannot be resolved, they are prepared to withdraw from the project.

Unexpectedly, La Liga was "one step ahead". A few minutes before the start of the Champions League match between Huang Qian and Manchester City, he received a call from the league informing him that the plan was cancelled. The reason was "decided by the host company" and specifically warned that the matter was still "confidential" and would be jointly announced with Huang Qian at an appropriate time. Not long after, La Liga independently overturned the joint announcement agreement and rushed to issue a statement during the Champions League match, announcing the decision to cancel the game to the world. The statement was released during a major game. Huang Qian was stunned and determined that the league had "extreme disrespect, no consideration and empathy" for him.

At the end of the article, Villarreal "regrettably" pointed out: La Liga, as the organizer of the event, failed to properly lead the implementation of the entire project, resulting in the failure of the Miami plan. And they also emphasized again: They firmly believe that such events are originally a golden opportunity to enhance the influence of La Liga and various clubs. But having said that, "Villarreal will continue to uphold its consistent philosophy and contribute to the continued development of the club and the league."
