La Liga President Tebas expressed his views on the current hot topics on RNE's "Sports Board", mainly discussing the possible match between Villarreal and Barcelona in Miami, as well as voices against the matter.

Regarding the game held in Miami, Tebas said: "I firmly believe that this game will be achieved this season. This is not our main goal, but a request made by the club voluntarily. It is now necessary to pass the approval of UEFA and FIFA."

Regarding the current opposition, he responded: "We will see if this will become a question that requires discussion on the whole. The club has the right to decide where to play. There have been discussions before, and many clubs The ministry agreed. "

In response to Angel Torres' firm position, Tebas said: "Italy and France are willing to go. The Spanish Super Cup was also held in Saudi Arabia... I don't understand what's wrong. This matter is exaggerated. Fernando Roig's point of view is very correct. If we don't take action, we will become irrelevant. We are just talking about one of 380 games."

Regarding the remarks of "manipulating the league", Tebas retorted: "This is not a fact. We are facing the 'integrity disease' now. This will not affect the fairness of the game. For example, Real Madrid put a player with a number of 30 on the court, but he will never play in the reserve team. Will this affect the fairness of the game?"

Regarding the registration issue, he said: "There are regulations here and must be followed. I believe that by August 31, the club will complete the task. This has also happened in the past few seasons and is not What's new. It's not surprising to me."

Talking about the new referee rules and committees, Tebas said: "We are full of expectations for the change of the CTA and the management of Fran Soto. He doesn't have to be an elite referee. I hope that artificial intelligence can be properly implemented in terms of promotion and downgrade, but expert Chema Alanso went to work with our competitors. His position has a conflict of interest with the new company, although I learned the news from the media."
