For a month, Confidencial has been revealing some audio and information that seriously compromises Rubiales. The President of the Federation was initially affected by the business of the Spanish Super Cup, as it was shown that he had negotiated several conditions with Piqué, an active footballer, that would benefit him if he took the tournament to Saudi Arabia.
Now the news has continued to come out and has been more serious, since he allegedly bought a luxury apartment to live with his girlfriend with funds from the Federation, and on the other hand, he also tried to convince Pedro Sánchez to intervene in his candidacy. The content of the messages shows the personality of Rubiales, unlike what a person in charge of him should demonstrate, so he should resign without waiting for any legal proceedings to be opened against him.
The previous President, Villar, was widely questioned for his ties with members of FIFA and UEFA that have been tainted by corruption cases. With Rubiales a new era seemed to open, because the Andalusian in his stage as a player, was the President of the AFE, an association that defends Spanish soccer players.
However, with everything that has been published, it shows that he is not suitable for the position, and the suspicions of some match-fixing are well founded, because if the Federation earns more money with the classification of Real Madrid and Barça in the Super Cup, it could try to encourage them to be there.
Football is a sport where there are many interests, but it needs to be protected and controlled more. Apart from the fact that it is necessary for Rubiales to leave, Spain must try to have greater control over this body and greater transparency to prevent anyone from staining this sport because of the business.
