Tebas blasts Real Madrid over Negreira case tactics

La Liga president Javier Tebas criticized Real Madrid in a social media post over the Negreira case. He argued the matter should be settled by the courts and accused Real Madrid TV and some journalists of trying to sustain the controversy. Tebas also questioned whether some wanted Barcelona and its current leaders removed from La Liga before a judicial decision.

Javier Tebas, La Liga’s president, used X to challenge Real Madrid’s handling of the Negreira matter. He maintained that any wrongdoing should be resolved through the courts, while criticizing Real Madrid TV and certain journalists for keeping the issue in public view. He also asked whether some parties wanted Barcelona and its current leadership excluded from La Liga before judges rule. Real Madrid has sent UEFA a dossier about Barcelona and sought a swift outcome, according to the material.

Tebas further noted that Spanish sporting discipline treats the relevant facts as time-barred. He argued that serious historical concerns do not justify claims that Negreira still affects officiating today. The league returns this weekend with Barcelona leading Atletico and Real Betis by five points and Real Madrid by six.
