As we already explained last night in MD, sometimes Luis Rubiales has submitted his resignation as president of Spanish Football Federation, Now the RFEF Rules are clear and confirm that the Board of Directors should be Management Committee for the initial call of elections for the remaining time until 2024 for the end of the mandate of Luis Rubiales and after his re-election in September 2020.
In the beginning these elections were for the presidency but not for General assembly They must gather for no more than a month. But, since new elections must be held in 2024; There is a possibility that the CSD allow the RFEF to advance in the first half of the year instead of the second, as it should because it is an Olympic team. This could avoid an imminent electoral process and leave everything to be held at the beginning of 2024 in both the presidency and the General Assembly.
Whatever happens, what is certain is that now the Federation must start taking steps. And the first, as exclusively learned by MD, will take place this coming Friday, September 15. For that day he called Pedro Rocha, as interim president, to the Board of Directors. Additionally, before this meeting, a meeting will take place with the presidents of the territory after the first meeting on August 28 where they requested the resignation of Luis Rubiales.
So, it is this Friday when the mandatory regulatory procedures that come from the resignation of Luis Rubiales. An organism, Management Committee, which shall consist of a maximum of 12 persons in addition to a president. Of them, six shall be elected by the Delegate Commission and six other members shall be appointed by the Board of Directors or, as appropriate, by the President. In this case, the aforementioned Pedro Rocha is the one responsible for this presidency.
It may be the case that this Commission is reduced to six members only, as long as it is authorized by the Delegate Commission. In this case, the said Commission appoints three and the Board or the President appoints three more. If the president wants to run as a candidate for election, he must resign from his position. Rocha initially indicated his intention not to appear. This was conveyed to all the presidents at the meeting at the end of August, but it is this Wednesday when he will confirm his position. If he finally does so, he must resign from his current position as president of the Management Commission when the electoral process opens and present his candidacy.
