MADRID, 8 Jun. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), through its spokesman Javier Gómez Matallanas, has assured this Tuesday that the president of LaLiga, Javier Tebas, “tried to buy a worker” from the Federation and “incited him to commit a crime “after the complaints announced by the head of LaLiga when it was related to the published recordings of Luis Rubiales.
For the RFEF, what has been reported is “extremely serious”, and has insisted that, according to that version -offered by ‘OK Diario’, “Thebes not only tried to buy a RFEF worker, but also incited him to commit a crime and numerous illegalities” in that meeting. “You can not continue for a minute at the head of the League,” says the federative spokesman.
“Entering the Federation’s servers is entering the heart of the entity and of Spanish football. Tebas wanted to have access to all the federation information, including emails and other confidential information, contracts on sponsorship agreements, fiscal data of clubs and even licenses – the vast majority of which belong to minors who play federated football -“, insisted Matallanas.
“The sensitivity of this matter is maximum and the RFEF is scandalized that someone, in a practice incompatible with business and sports ethics, suggests to another that such a serious crime be committed,” Matallanas sentenced.
For his part, Miguel García Caba, deputy secretary general of the RFEF, assures that Tebas “offered him a job in exchange for sensitive and confidential information with the sole purpose of ending President Luis Rubiales and his team.”
“Fortunately, the victim of this attempt to buy wills is a professional who has shown a capacity for reaction, honesty and loyalty worthy of gratitude.” García Caba, in addition to holding the aforementioned position in the RFEF, is also a member of the UEFA Control, Disciplinary and Ethics Committee.
Javier Gómez Matallanas indicated that “honesty is a concept that Tebas is completely unaware of, since at this point it is public and well-known that Javier Tebas is at the forefront of this conspiracy” against Luis Rubiales and the RFEF.
An operation that Matallanas affirms is “against the Federation, and against the whole of Spanish sport because another of its objectives is Alejandro Blanco, president of the COE.”
“It is also about putting pressure on the CSD through the League’s satellite associations with announcements of complaints with the aim of opening files to the president of the RFEF on trivial and unsubstantiated issues,” said Matallanas, who affirms that, “With this, it is only intended to intimidate the CSD, but the truth and legality are prevailing.” “The RFEF trusts in justice”, concludes the spokesman for the Federation.
