RFEF leader in Las Palmas blames Rubiales and talks about “looting”

The president of the Interinsular Football Federation of Las Palmas, José Juan Arencibiaauthor in the summer of 2023 “Rocha is not going to be a straw man for Luis Rubiales,” said this Wednesday that the RFEF is “touch of death“due to the ‘Rubiales case’ and could put Spain’s headquarters for the 2030 World Cup in jeopardy. The Gran Canarian leader is committed to “raising the rug because if everything present is confirmed, This is a theft that is not allowed“.

Arencibia did not follow his critical line in this regard, the current president of the Canarian Football Federation, the Alejandro Morales Mansito from Tenerife, which is part of the RFEF management board. “He chose his path and I respect that, but I I advise any friend who is not there (management board)“Arencibia is stressed.

In an interview given to the public station Canarias Radio, Arencibia distanced himself from all the controversies surrounding the highest body of Spanish football and asked for external audits to be carried out to have a total clear.

“I don’t understand how the management board, of which I am very lucky that I did not become a member I am the only president who has resignednow calling an election when the candidate who emerges can be disqualified or charged within days,” he said.

He remembered that he had warned them to be careful and bring a strict economic controland fears that what this investigation will reveal “is only the tip of the iceberg as more bad news comes out and more people come out to be involved.”

“They say there are four or five million emails and recordings, and that’s it “Even the military helps the UCO of the Civil Guard to check them.”he added.

In a “scandal of this magnitude,” Arencibia fears that “many things“, as Spain’s own headquarters for the 2030 World Cup, which it should organize together with Portugal and Morocco.

“The FIFA expects some to step aside, and of course the World Cup is in jeopardy… depressing that we lost it because of something external,” said José Juan Arencibia, “very concerned” about the situation experienced by the RFEF, which, in his opinion, was “deadly touched.”

The president of the Las Palmas Federation recalled that the last two presidents of the RFEF “were not territorial presidents.” “Don’t egos and envy help you choose a partner? We had to turn to people on the street so that they came to manage the RFEF, and they created problems for us,” he highlighted.

Arencibia declared that he has a “nose” and since he came to his position as president of the territory he knows “what can happen” in the RFEF: “When no one asks and everyone says yes, what will happen ?”
