Risto Mejide has moved with his program to Motril, Granada, to receive his new guest, Luis Rubiales. The president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation has returned to the program of the former de Laura Escanes to address new issues that have been shaking the sports scene.
The presenter of the format asked him if “there is a certain feeling of impunity when you are a footballer.” “I think it doesn’t matter if you’re a footballer or if you dedicate yourself to anything. We are in a country where the law must fall resoundingly and with all the force, whoever it is. If it ends up showing that there is a bad performance, it doesn’t matter if you are a footballer or what you do. You have to fall a penalty as it says in the penal code and comply with it, there is no more.”, Rubiales responded when asked about this issue.
Luis made his position clear regarding these cases: “I think that when you are a public person, you are a footballer or you, Risto. People get into the bag and judge you, they will talk about the case and there have been cases where someone’s innocence has been shown and they have been crushed“.
Rubiales does not share that there is a “maximum permissibility.” “It’s not a question of footballers, it’s a question of the values you receive, but there are people who don’t manage it well,” Rubiales continued. “What is managing well?“, Mejide was interested.
“Well, spend money on things that you don’t have to spend. Pay attention to material things over family and friends. I don’t like to be anyone’s judge, but I trust Spanish justice. All Spaniards enjoy it for free and it has to fall with all the hardness whoever it is“, the president made his position clear.
