La Liga president Javier Tebas has shared his belief that it will be a long time until big transfer deals will take place again due to the global Coronavirus crisis.

Reigning La Liga champions Barcelona in particular have been linked with making a host of big transfers ahead of the upcoming transfer window with them having been linked to Paris Saint-Germain’s Neymar and Inter’s Lautaro Martinez, who has a €111 million release clause.

“It will be a complicated market. I guess we will see a lot of exchanges and few big deals. It will take some time to see business of a certain level again, I think at least two years,” Tebas explained in an interview with Catalonia based radio station Rac 1 earlier today.

He then went on to share his belief that global spending will not surpass the €800 million mark, something which regularly happens during the Summer transfer window, which is set to take place a few months later this year due to Coronavirus.

“At the moment, there are clubs like Manchester City, PSG or Newcastle that can invest a lot of money, in a way that I don’t like at all. I don’t think that, in any case, we will exceed 800 million euros globally.”

The transfer window in Italy is set to commence at the beginning of September and close at the start of October and other leagues are expected to follow and change the start and finish dates of the window.
