24 hours after the Copa del Rey final, an unprecedented war explodes in Spanish football. Javier Tebas has launched a very hard statement loaded with reproaches against Florentino Pérez, after Real Madrid has decided to suspend its presence in the official acts of the previous and threatened with not appearing to the decisive duel against FC Barcelona in the Cartuja.
The threat came after the statements this morning by Ricardo de Burgos Bengoecha and Pablo González Fuertes, those in charge of imparting justice in the classic of the Copa del Rey final, which have denounced the constant harassment of Real Madrid TV, which has made the tension already latent between the white club and the Spanish Football Federation jump through the air.
Whites, in their attempt to disasterize and press the RFEF, have requested in an official statement to what they consider as a very serious event that “those responsible for the RFEF and the arbitration estate proceed accordingly”, in other words, that change to the arbitration team of the final.
The president of LaLiga, far from opting for diplomacy and as usual, has shot with a bullet against Florentino, accusing him of wanting to control Spanish football to his measure. The message, published on its networks, is a real declaration of war.
Full statement
This is not football, it is power control.
- He doesn't like Thebes because he doesn't do what he wants.
- He doesn't like Ceferin because he doesn't do what he wants.
- He doesn't like Louzán because he doesn't do what he wants.
- He doesn't like TV commentators because they don't say what he wants.
- They do not want to advance in the arbitration reform because it is not the one he wants.
And now, after the statements of the referees – hartos of constant harassment from Real Madrid TV – responds as he knows:
Suspend the press conference.
Training in the Cartuja jumps.
I despise the official acts of the Cup final.
Filtra that will not be presented in the final of the Cup.
What a fine skin
Does not protest, press.
He doesn't complain, threatens.
Do not disagree, punish.
He doesn't want to improve football, he wants his football.
And the most serious thing is not that I try.
The serious thing is that many allow it, consent and help him.
