President of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) Rafael Louzan has claimed that they strive for 'maximum transparency' and 'full openness' when it comes to reform for the referee system. On Wednesday there was a meeting between the RFEF, the Referee Committee (CTA), La Liga, the chosen clubs and Real Madrid.
A few weeks ago, in the midst of controversy and countless complaints, there was a mood between the clubs in the top three of Spanish football, chosen representatives of the Referee Reform Committee, where Real Betis, Sevilla, Albacete and Granada were chosen from La Liga and Segunda. La Liga and the RFEF then chose to invite Real Madrid and Racing Santander from their own will. Louzan promised changes for the following season.
“We have a clear horizon. As far as we can, we will try to ensure that the model and this structural change can be implemented with the start of the following season 2025/2026. “
Real Madrid has been noisy and the most virulent in their complaints and called the referee system corrupt and manipulated specifically against them. Nevertheless, general manager Jose Angel Sanchez attended the meeting.
“We thank Real Madrid for their presence,” Louzan told Sport. “We are at kilometer zero; This meeting has never happened before. We will see how far we can go. There are regulations, rules and sports legislation. Everything is put on the table. The English model, the German model, has already been discussed … Although none of them is perfect, there are complaints everywhere. “
In the meantime, one of the figures is said to be with their position that is threatened, head of the CTA, Luis Medina Cantalejo. He noted that they had not spoken about the constant smears of official Madrid -Media.
“We have not discussed anything about Real Madrid TV, nor something in particular about a club.”
“A transparency has been requested. This is also true with regard to referee agreements, which are made through a committee consisting of the Federation, Liga and the CSD. Or with regard to the relegation and promotion of referees, how they are scored … Perhaps a committee should be set up to report on this. “
