Thebes: “In Florentino’s case, if you don’t do what he believes… then you are his enemy.”

“Having good personal relationships with the presidents does not mark the way I act. There is no mania for anyone. What is especially true in the case of Florentino Pérez is that if you don’t do what he believes is…. then you are his enemy.” word of Javier thebes, president of LaLiga, who gave an extensive interview on Monday to the program “La Hora de Broti” on Radio MARCA Asturias. The president of LaLiga, who had words to analyze the history and tradition of the Asturian derby, referred to various points in current football events such as Vinicius, the VAR or his relationship with Laporta, apart from Florentino Pérez.

How is Thebes relationship with Florentino Pérez

“I really like football and Florentino Pérez is not Real Madrid, you have to know how to distinguish these issues. Just because Florentino Pérez is the president of Real Madrid, all Real Madrid fans must be with Florentino Pérez, and that means not that I’m playing against Real Madrid, no,” said the LaLiga president.

The Vinicius case

“I see him as Ancelotti, who sometimes asks Vinicius for peace of mind. Most recently in the Copa del Rey final, that loving hug as he left the dressing room tunnel at half-time. I see that he is a young, impulsive boy, and that it should be calm. Also with all the problems it has had with the racist rants there is an exaggerated problem around him when in my opinion it is less than what is there,” he noted.

Can Barca sign Messi?

“I don’t know, it depends on the player and on Fútbol Club Barcelona. All we know is financial control and Barcelona knows what to do because it knows perfectly the rules of financial control to have room.” to register a player Thebes assured.

How VAR works in our football

Thebes noted that “there is an unease between the clubs, coaches, players, hobbies, media. A lot of plays that don’t know what it is. What if it’s hands, a penalty or a small penalty… I feel, also because I discussed it with a referee, that the weight of the most important actions is no longer with the field referee, but with the VAR referees . The essence of the referee has been lost, who should be the field referee. So there is a confusion of authority. That didn’t work well. The VAR is the one who decides whether it’s a penalty or not, whether it’s a handball or not, whether it’s an exclusion or not,” he said.

VAR in La Liga Smartbank

“We have six, eight or 12 cameras in LaLiga SmartBank, it depends on the game. I think the semi-automatic offside will also be in LaLiga SmartBank. That’s a decision we have to make, but I think so. It is a positive aspect in that aspect Thebes said.
