Now, the president of the RFEF, Rafael Louzan, has weighed on the situation. Speaking during a public event, Louzan acknowledged that the request had been transmitted to the appropriate legal channels.
“It was transmitted to the competition judge, which Real Madrid asked, and therefore it is now in the hands of the competition judge and the parties involved, that we gave an audience: Real Madrid, Osasuna, AFE and Liga”, “ He said.
“Thus, all parties will be able to participate and give their comments and suggestions on the decision,“He added (h / t World of sport).

Asked about his own opinion on the question, Louzan tried to remain shy and said that it was up to the authorities to decide.
“Everything has its course, and this one does it too, and the judge will decide,” He said.
When asked if Madrid’s request for 21 days of rest and three additional weeks of pre-season is justified, said Louzan, “I must respect everyone’s requests, but experts in the matter are those who must decide.
“”There is a calendar, and the competent person, in this case, the judge, must make the decision. »»
Finally, Louzan commented on the painful release of Real Madrid of the FIFA club World Cup, where they lost 4-0 against PSG.
“It was a shame because we would have liked to see them in the final, but it is always a great success for Spanish football because we reached the semi-finals.
“”Congratulations to Real Madrid even if they could not make the final. I hope that, sooner or later, we will see them in a grand finale“, He concluded.
