ZURICH, June 23 (Reuters) - A legal complaint against UEFA's break-even rule 'Financial Fair Play (FFP)' has been referred to the European Court of Justice (EJ), the lawyers who brought the case said on Tuesday.
The EJ will be asked if FFP "violates the following EU fundamental freedoms: free competition, free movement of capital and freedom to invest, free movement of workers and free movement of services," said Jean-Louis Dupont and Martin Hissel in a statement.
The Court of First Instance also granted an interim measure to prohibit European soccer's ruling body UEFA implementing a second phase of FFP, the statement added.
