Javier Tebas has claimed that illegal streams are more readily available online than those seeking to buy illegal drugs or child pornography in a tirade against the rise in football piracy.
Tebas is the president of Spain's top-flight, LaLiga, and has caught headlines on a number of occasions for his words, for example he admitted 'I don't care' after receiving criticism for welcoming Mason Greenwood to the division.
Greenwood joined Getafe on loan from Manchester United on transfer deadline day last summer, having previously been arrested on suspicion of rape and sexual assault - allegations which were later dropped.
Tebas was in attendance in Miami for the Intellectual Property Summit, and it was there that he launched an attack against a perceived lack of punishment for those involved in football piracy.
There has been a recent crackdown in the United Kingdom on the use of 'fire sticks' to stream football, with one individual - Steven Mills - jailed for two-and-a-half years for providing the illegal tools which showed Premier League matches via a closed Facebook group.
