The possibility that Luis Rubiales decide to resign due to the turn events, especially the file opened by FIFA. The question is: what will happen if he finally resigns? At the time this happens, as stated in the Statutes in its article 31 relating to the president: “If the President ceases for reasons other than the end of his mandate, the Board of Directors shall become the Management Committee and shall call elections to fill the position; the one elected shall occupy the position for a time equal to the time remaining. to fulfill the replaced, being plus appregarding this, the rule provided in article 23.2 of this ordinance.”
This means that this Management Commission must call elections and where the chosen one will first manage the position until the second semester of the year 2024. This is when, as stated in the Royal Decree that controls the processes of electoral sports federations, it needs to make a new call. Of these, in case of resignation, Luis Rubiales cannot be presented. But if you can do it in the case of those that should be held in the second half of the year since Spain will participate in the men’s soccer tournament in Paris: The electoral law says the following about the call: “Without prejudice to the provisions of the following sections, the electoral processes for the election of the aforementioned bodies shall be conducted in conjunction with the year in which the Summer Olympic Games are held, and shall begin within the first four months of the said year.. However, the Spanish sports federations that will participate in the Summer Olympic Games will begin their electoral processes within two months after their completion.”
As we say, if Luis Rubiales can face again for this new electoral process. This is how the federative Statutes themselves establish it in their article 23 where it says that “In the event that, for any reason, they are unable to complete the term of office, the incumbents of the vacancies shall hold office for a time equal to the time remaining for the replacements, who may not stand for a new election until in time. passed Olympic where they were chosen“.
Then Luis Rubiales can be a candidate for the presidency in 2024. Something that can only avoid disqualification for more than a year and a half approximately. Either through FIFA or through a file that TAD may open in response to complaints received against him.
