Spanish soccer players have become protagonists this week on social networks with the ‘hashtag’ (tag) #YoTambienSoyProfesional. This is the motto that the Primera Iberdrola players have massively put into their accounts to make known their discontent and concern for not yet having a start date for the competition.
The fact is that, although the soccer players are professionals thanks to the signing of the collective agreement -the first in history-, the truth is that the League still does not have that condition. That is the reason why the tournament was suspended without being able to finish every match, awarding the League title to Barça, as well as the reason why the start of the new season is still unknown.
The players of the Primera Iberdrola have said enough out loud through the motto #YoTambienSoyProfesional, who has gone viral on social media. There are players in our League who are world stars and have hundreds of thousands of followers, so the idea of making their situation known to the world has been a resounding success.
In principle, the Women's League was scheduled to start on September 5, although it was decided at the last minute to delay it because of the outbreaks of covid with no date still on the horizon. The scene could not be more bleak.
“We all want to continue growing, but we are the only ones who continue to wait,” the Atlético de Madrid captain said in a message on Twitter. Amanda sampedro.
The Granada player, Alba Perez, has been forceful: “Can we start defending the ideals of equality once and for all? Going out to the streets to defend it is very necessary, I am the first, but I am also the first to really fight when necessary ”, she wrote. AND Paula Nicart, an international and Valencia player, joined the Barça's request Aitana Bonmatí to contact the Minister of Equality Irene Montero: ”To this day and after being canceled last March, we still have no start date and we don't know anything about it … Until when? … Could you give a hand to women's football in Spain? From women to women ”.
It should be remembered that the major European leagues have all their starting dates: In Italy, the League started on August 22, in Germany it will be on September 4 and in England and France it is scheduled for September 5.
