Ahead of the World Cup final, Tebas gave an interview to Mundo Deportivo in New York, discussing Barcelona's situation and his expectations for the final.
Has Barcelona recovered from a 1-1 draw?
"Yes, Barcelona has now returned to a 1-1 draw, and given their transfer activity, this is inevitable."
Expectations for the final
"I don't know if there has ever been a match as exciting as that in the history of the World Cup. We are often told that we don't sign players, etc. Spain has a very strong ability to develop players, and we are proving that with our actions."
"16 of them play in our league. If you include the Argentinian players, 24 of the 52 players in the final are from La Liga. This shows that we have the best league and the best players in the world."
The next World Cup will be jointly hosted by Spain, Portugal and Morocco.
"The ticket prices here are very high compared to what we are used to in Europe, and even compared to the United States. This will not happen at the World Cup held in Spain."
As for whether the final will be held in Spain?
"We must keep working hard; Spain deserves the final."
