Luis Rubiales he went through the microphones of “El Larguero” of Cadena SER to talk, among other topics of the Superliga, the new format of the Champions, your relationship with Boxes Y Aganzo or the Iberian candidacy for the World 2030.
Super league: “I am a member of the management committee that is negotiating the changes in the Champions League. Football is going to evolve and UEFA has to mark it. The greats have to play games because they see each other. I hope the Super League does not succeed. Leagues have to think about how to reduce their days. We have a 38-game league and it can only be done in two ways: either reduce the teams or change the format. If you reduce the teams, they won't want to. So you have to look for another format Different than there is with a 33-day competition that may have even more than two Clásicos. We can sit down with LaLiga to talk about dreams that Tebas has about neutral fields without harming the fans so that they have their game at home and away. play certain games in neutral fields. As the most modest ones cling to the league of 20 with the 38-day format, they are going to play a pulse that can be won or lost. Or the leagues reduce the teams. they change the format and that is something that will happen in the next two or four years and if they want to play a pulse there will be four, six or eight clubs that are unchecked. We have to reach an intermediate point, which is what UEFA is proposing. We are going to a format in which the big ones generate more box office “.
Domestic leagues: “In England there are fans of 18 or 20 teams and here you are one of your team and one of the greats. Sevilla with this system would be out. You have to get the greats to generate more and reach the little ones.”
SuperChampions: “I am optimistic. There will be no Super League outside of UEFA. Ceferin knows football in a spectacular way. He will give more comfort to the big ones, but he will not leave the little ones.”
Boxes: “On December 16 I announced the elections for January. We have fulfilled everything. There have been thousands of votes to elect the assembly members. I don't know why Iker says that. If they close the border between Spain and Portugal, he would have stayed in Spain. I don't want to argue. If you need me just by calling, I'll be there. Stay in Spain and visit the assembly members. I did the job three years ago. “
Viana Pact for Peace: “It served for the return to professional football. There was a very intense work. The protocol was drawn up so that everyone could compete in all categories. The minister is the greatest promoter of the autonomy of the federations.”
Relationship with the CSD: “We received with surprise the resolution of the Monday and Friday matches. Irene said that she was going to respect the judicial decisions. We were surprised by how and when. It was not accidental. It was leaked to the media and a resolution opposed to what the judge says. The moment when a sentence was going to come out that gave us the reason is not by chance. This has to be fixed quickly. We are going to try to solve it in a diplomatic way because otherwise bigger problems will be created. “
Aganzo on the board of directors: “Of between 10 and 12 meetings he has come to one because he was playing futgolf. We have given four million euros for the Second B and Third clubs to pay.”
Bid from Spain and Portugal: “The Iberian candidacy is a winning bet. If football leads this candidacy, we believe that we will be the most powerful candidacy. There would be 16 venues, with three or four in Portugal. We are going to have more venues. When they go throughout Spain with There are cities that want to be in the National Team. It can excite those who like football and those who don't because it generates tourism. “
World Cup in Spain: “I would bet on us. I want to convey security and humility.”
Play in Bilbao: “Today I cannot say otherwise. Nothing has been said in the UEFA Executive Committee. You have to reach 25-30% of the public. Having three Euro Cup games is worth millions of euros in advertising. Now you have to be calm. I'm not going to be the one to push with this. “
Basque report where they do not ensure that this percentage can be in San Mamés: “What there is is a draft with four scenarios: pessimistic, half pessimistic, half optimistic and optimistic. I was at that figure, 13%, in the most pessimistic view.”

Penalties for making statements against the referees: “While I am president, the Committee will decide it. We believe in freedom of expression and it is subject to the law. The referees are sports judges and they cannot be humiliated or questioned their honesty. It cannot be said that they are from a team. those who accept criticism the most. It can be said that they have whistled badly. Something that goes beyond freedom of expression has been socialized. We have proposed order. A few days ago there was a ruling from the Constitutional Court saying that those who are under that order You have to taste it. You can criticize it, but do not question its honesty. Part of the managers' job is to calm down in difficult moments. If there is something you cannot say you have to calm down. Football is passion, but we have to take care of it. The good repute of a judge cannot be called into question. “

Field and VAR referees: “For a referee to go far he has to be prepared to whistle on the field and in the VAR room”.
Super Cup in Arabia: “The Super Cup is one of the most followed tournaments and when we decided to bet on this trophy it was not the same in Spain as it was.

When we were in Arabia we were able to be with 25 secretaries from Asian federations and in four years' time it will be decided where the 2030 World Cup is going. Here the clubs don't lose and it helps to project ourselves “.
critics: “I understand them and accept them. Another thing is another type of attacks. I have given my arguments and not by repeating them I am going to convince those who do not want to. I have spoken with clubs that were in the quarterfinals and they decided how well they were going to do going to Asia (if they got to play the Super Cup) “.
Madrid and Barça: “If we look at those who have reached the quarterfinals playing two-legged games, it will not be easy for them. If Barça does not go and Madrid does not go, they will not go.”
Copa del Rey: “We have surpassed in some questions the English Cup that was light years away. For the economy of a humble team it is a party”.

Two-game semi-finals: “There are several factors. He is coming out phenomenal in audiences. Before it was back and forth. We did not want to have a finalist who had not played in his field. Getting a ticket for the final is difficult, but being a partner it is easier to see him at home “.
Athletic-Levante: “I liked it. The two semifinals have emotion until the end.”
Lopetegui and Koeman: “I do not share what they said but I respect it. Spain has played against the Faroe Islands on artificial grass. We have played in Malta and in stadiums where the grass is not like on our fields.”
Cervera: “The lower category team would like to have 60-80 million to compete with the First category. The Cup is here to stay.”

Deportivo relegation: “There are other issues that have to be discussed in the courts. We understand that there are actions that have to be considered thoroughly. We have appeared and are willing to collaborate. I was called on that day when since Saturday others knew that there were three positive. In an extreme situation it is communicated in another way. Neither we nor the CSD knew anything. The usual and the usual. The Federation has 80-90% of complaints that come from LaLiga or associations related to LaLiga. Federation has few against LaLiga “.
Women's Football: “It is very frustrating when the players have up to five games to recover. 90% of the games have been played. We have reached several agreements such as maintaining the protocol.
