Real Madrid Demands Tebas Resign After Comparing Club To Nazi Propaganda
Real Madrid has demanded the immediate resignation of La Liga chief Javier Tebas from both the league presidency and his post as federation vice president, following comments comparing the club and its television channel to Nazi propaganda mechanisms. Tebas published his remarks on platform X, responding to Madrid's objection regarding the scheduling of their Valencia fixture on November 7, due to their Champions League match against AEK Athens on November 4. In a formal statement, Real Madrid condemned the remarks as deeply offensive and morally abhorrent, asserting that equating the club with Nazi tactics remains an insult despite Tebas clarifying that his analogy targeted propaganda methods rather than ideology. The club noted that these statements constitute a renewed attack, underscoring the necessity of comprehensive structural reforms in refereeing, governance, and disciplinary frameworks, following the payments scandal involving former referee Jose Maria Enriquez Negreira. Real Madrid affirmed its commitment to pursuing transparency and legal inquiries, reaffirming its demand for Tebas to step down to protect institutional rights.
