The turbulent situation that the Spanish Football Association (AFE) is going through seems to have reacted to those seeking an alternative to its president in question, David Aganzo. Several First and Second captains have started a movement for a change in the union leadership and the name chosen is that of Fernando Morientes. According to EL MUNDO, the former Real Madrid player does not rule out taking the step forward.
“It is not a thing that I have looked for. It is a pleasant surprise, that they call you partners, former partners, coaches … It makes me proud, that the values that I have sowed with the passage of time, represent them to many, “said in El Partizado de Cope the former 44-year-old forward, who played, among other teams, in Albacete, Liverpool, Mnaco or Real Madrid.
“What I have heard, the internal problems that have been going out with the AFE worker … These are things that damage his image. What I know as AFE is not what I see. Disunited footballers. I am still an affiliate and I do not like it and I am saddened by the image that is being given “, reasoned Morientes, who is also a collaborator of EL MUNDO.
This week, the daily Marca reported on the letter from an AFE employee accusing Aganzo of the commission of an alleged bribery crime. Furthermore, part of the union leadership has filed a complaint against the president himself for the possible commission of a continued crime of unfair administration, another of bribery and another of revelation of secrets. All this instability has led to the search for an alternative in Morientes.
Aganzo himself tried to justify the accusations that Antonio Snchez Chueca I blamed both him and his general secretary, Diego Rivas. “I have rendered accounts of all my management with transparency and honesty, and a support in the last Assembly of 98%. I represent a union with more than forty years of history and nearly fifty workers, and no one guides us. another objective that is not the full and unwavering defense of the rights of the more than ten thousand soccer players that, like you, make up AFE, “the president said in a statement.
“If it is not with the approval of the players, I will not be thinking about it. I am turning my head,” Morientes announced. For the latest information, Aganzo has no plans to resign; the term remains until the summer of 2021. He has convened a Board of Directors for Friday, to appoint two new vice-presidents after the departure of Juan Mata and David de Gea.
“What the footballers want is a change now. I perceive that the image that is being given of the union does not represent them,” continued Morientes, who confessed that he has never had a union streak: “But football has given me everything and if the footballer calls me … It's hard for me to look the other way. I want to seriously consider it. “
