Luis Rubiales has informed his collaborators that tomorrow he will resign from the presidency of the Spanish Football Federation. The online edition of El Pais writes it.
The decision was made in the last few hours, at the end of a discussion with his staff and solicited by several presidents of the local committees, at the
on the eve of an extraordinary assembly of the Federation which promised to be very difficult for him.
Luis Rubiales ultimately chose voluntary dismissal in the face of the possibility of being disqualified by the Superior Sports Council. Rubiales' intention - continues El Pais - was not to resign, but the succession of criticisms and the loss of support in the world of football in the last few hours, think of the investigations launched by Fifa, convinced him to give up in the light of the storm for his kiss on the mouth, forced and without
consent, to player Jenni Hermoso, during the World Cup awards ceremony in Sydney.
