إقالات بالجملة لمسؤولي التحكيم في إسبانيا

The Spanish Football Federation announced today (Thursday) the dismissal of all officials from the Technical Committee of Referees, in a surprising move aimed at restructuring the refereeing system. The dismissals included the committee's president, Medina Cantalejo, and his deputies, including Clos Gómez and Rubinos Pérez. The federation confirmed that the new names that will lead the committee will be announced next week, as part of a comprehensive development plan to improve refereeing performance and restore the trust of clubs and fans. This step comes after a season that witnessed widespread controversy over contentious refereeing decisions, particularly in matches involving Real Madrid and Barcelona, amid calls for the committee's independence from the Spanish Federation to avoid conflicts of interest and enhance transparency.

Real Madrid, in particular, had launched a wide-ranging campaign of criticism against the referees' committee last season, which included the presentation of ongoing video reports throughout the season regarding refereeing errors.
