On March 3 we expect you MD the immediate future of VAR in Spanish football, both First Division and Second division. A new scenario, as a result of the decision adopted by the Delegate Commission of RFEF on November 16 of last year and this corresponds to the years that they can continue to perform their duties as VAR, when they finish their activity as field referees. In that Commission, as stated in the minutes of the same, it was determined that “they can only act for a maximum period of two seasons after the completion of the arbitration activity on the pitch.”
The decision exclusively addresses the work situation currently maintained by all former referees and assistants performing these duties of VAR and AVAR with the RFEF.
As a result of all this, so far only one of the five members of the particular body of VAR may continue next season. It is the Aragonese Jaime Latre. None of the remaining four can do this. Starting with the most veteran like meIgnacio Iglesias Villanueva and Gonzalez Gonzalez. Galician entered in 2019 and Castilian from Leon in 2020. The same is happening in Estrada Fernández and Medié Jiménez, given that both are incorporated in the summer of 2021. In the coming month of July both seasons will be completed.
This indicates that next season the specific body of VAR It will initially be reduced to two former members. Property Jaime Latre next to Carlos del Cerro. A third party can be added if he finally accepts Mateu Lahoz.
As a consequence, next season all squad referees will have to perform the VAR function again. First division. In the last two seasons, the specific VAR and the international referees have been performing these tasks. Only in case of necessity, is when other non-international referees act as VAR. If they do it regularly as AVAR.

One of the reasons may be the fact that on June 30, in less than a month and a half, the agreement that has been implemented for the last five seasons regarding the salary situation of the arbitration of referees, assistants as well as VAR . expires and AVAR of the First and Second divisions. Another reason for this meeting is also explained that the First and Second divisions will enter the final stage of the championship. In the case of the highest category, there are four days left.
