The Spanish Football Association calls on the players to end the boycott: – We guarantee a safe environment
The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) wrote in a statement that it wants World Cup players to stand behind the dishwashing process at the association.
Currently, there are 39 players who are boycotting the national team. Chaos occurred after the then president of Spanish football, Luis Rubiales, kissed Jennifer Hermoso on the mouth against her wishes during the World Cup gold medal ceremony.
Spanish women’s football boycotted the national team afterwards and demanded the resignations of Rubiales and national team coach Jorge Vildas. In addition, they asked for fairer conditions and respect for female players.
On Monday, the squads for the national league games against Sweden and Switzerland will be selected, and there will be many important names missing. In a statement two hours before the draw, the RFEF asked players to reconsider the boycott.
“It is clear that the association, the community and the players are on the same page with the same goal: renewal and the start of a new phase. For this reason, players are encouraged to agree to the changes made. “We guarantee a safe environment for the players and are committed to having a climate of mutual trust so we can work together,” he said.
