Florentino pressures the Federation with a refereeing revolution: English referees

Florentino Pérez pressures the president of the Federation because 'he feels wronged by the referees'

The president of the Spanish Football Federation, Rafael Louzán, has given an interview to Josep Pedrerol, on El Cafelito of El Chiringuito. In it, the way the white president pressures the referees is reflected.

Florentino, insistently, has told the president of the Spanish Federation that he feels wronged by the referees. And that because of them, the Real Madrid "has lost many titles" and has even proposed that English referees officiate. Something like refereeing à la carte.

Complaints with 10 penalties in favor and 0 against

This interview comes at a very particular moment. In which in the Spanish competition, huge refereeing scandals that favor Real Madrid occur. It is precisely the white team that leads the penalty table with 10 in favor and 0 against.

What Rafael Louzán has stated only confirms the authorship of Real Madrid TV's strategy. Their pressure on the referees is nothing more than the fulfillment of a presidential order from the club.

Louzán has said that his relationship with Florentino "is good. What happens is that he states emphatically that he feels wronged in the refereeing field. This is already vox populi".

The president of the Federation accepts Florentino's pressure. And he asks for patience: "Then I tell him 'I just arrived, we'll have to reset the counter,let's try to get along'".

Florentino wants English referees to officiate

Rafael Louzán admits that the president of Real Madrid "insists on the matter, he is persistent. He reminds me of the Negreira case from time to time and asks me to solve the case, but that is in the hands of justice. Even so, he asks me to solve it."

And he reveals the secret move that Florentino is up to: "he told me one day that he was going to bring English referees to officiate. And I told him: 'let's see how we do it, then'. And it's not new, he has told me several times".

"We have lost many titles because of the referees"

He also reveals that "in Arabia, a year ago, he took me aside and told me 'you have to solve the referee issue. They are harming us and we have lost many titles because of them'".

This is how Real Madrid works in the shadows. There is no better defense than a good attack. After their failed attempt with the Super League, they now want to impose English referees in LaLiga.

And the president of the Federation admits it as if it were the most normal thing in the world. Florentino Pérez is not happy even with a Madridist president and vice president in the Federation.
