Villar breaks into Colón, sends the Octopus to silence and takes the Cup

Genius and figure. The former president of the Federation (RFEF), Ángel María Villar, appeared on the morning of this Saturday in the Plaza de Colón in Madrid, silenced the RFEF 'speaker', Carlos Moreno, 'El Pulpo', stood in line to take a photo with the World Cup trophy, posed with dozens of fans, greeted the federal employees and was where he had come from, by the way, wearing a sports cap from the same technical sponsor as the Selection.

Villar, who came to Colón walking from the Ventas neighborhood, where he lives, tried to go unnoticed, but was unsuccessful. The former president, who is still under investigation by Judge Santiago Pedraz for the alleged crimes of corruption between individuals, falsehood, unfair administration, misappropriation and possible removal of propertyHe was arrested by the Civil Guard three years ago now and sent, as a preventive measure, to the Soto del Real prison with his son Gorka and the vice president of the Federation and former president of the Tenerife territory, Juan Padrón. The three detainees, who once were released on bail, are now waiting for Pedraz to close the investigation..

Villar, who was the president of the RFEF when Spain won the World Cup in South Africa and also the vice-president of UEFA when the last two European Cups were won, has maintained a low profile for the last three years, since on July 20, 2017 he was handcuffed by the agents of the Benemérita Central Operating Unit (UCO), who took him from his house, very close to the plaza of bulls of Las Ventas.

Precisely from his house Villar left this morning, who went up the Alcalá callé until he reached Goya and finally headed for Colón. He did not expect that the Octopus, with as good intention as ignorance of the character, would receive him with joyBecause, as he says on his website, he is an entertainer “synonymous with fun, participation, energy and good vibes in its different facets”. Villar has cut the roll: “Callaté, callaté”, but then, more relaxed, he has taken a photo with the World Cup and he has greeted fans and federations.
