The league announced a few dates ago that it was considering taking legal action against the FIFA for expressing and approving the dispute of Club World Cup from February 1 and 11, 2023. Some tournament dates in which the Spanish employers consider that they do not take into account the leagues and their impact on the calendars of the national leagues.
Some actions that, as this newspaper has learned, it plans to take and are just finalizing. A complaint to be filed first with TAS.
Although the Club World Cup That is not included in the international calendar FIFA which has been established for four years, employers want to denounce the harm implied by its announcement with short notice and closed competition calendars. They made it clear in the statement when they openly denounced this situation: “Since The league it is considered completely inappropriate for FIFA decide, without any kind of consultation and agreement with the Leagues, on the dates of Club World Cup 2022to be held from February 1 to 11, 2023, less than two months after the dispute, with consequent damage to national calendars set from June 2022.
So, for example, in 2019 the FIFA announced in July its dates for this tournament, which is usually held in December. In the 2020 edition, which was already held in February 2021, it was announced on November 17, 2020. And this time it was approved in mid-December less than a month and a half after its dispute. And as denounced by the big leagues, without consulting them.
He is awaiting the award of his first appeal before the TAS
This complaint will be the second in LaLiga in FIFA before TAS for calendar reasons. In August 2021, soccer’s world governing body decided to change the dates of the September and October selection windows to CONMEBOL. It was extended by two days and the argument for another match to make up for matches that could not be played in March 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic. COVID. Proposal that led to LaLiga having to postpone two games in September on the fourth day (Villarreal – Alavés and Sevilla – Barcelona) and two more in October on the ninth day (Real Madrid- Athletic Club de Bilbao and Granada – Atletico) since These teams were affected by this measure because the following Tuesday they had the Champions League. And the players arrived on Friday night, just over 24 hours after their league commitments, which had to be played on Saturday. Decision appealed by RFEF before the CSD and it was rejected.
At that moment The league This proposal has been considered as a serious change of this international calendar of FIFA there is no room for maneuver for clubs obliged to design their national calendars based on the dates this calendar leaves FIFA (currently in effect from 2020 to 2024) and the setting of UEFA of their club competitions.
LaLiga decided to appeal to TAS this unilateral decision of FIFA to change the calendar, as is happening now with the Club World Cup, thus affecting the international calendar. Both for the object and for the method of its execution. Right now he is waiting to hear the award.
