Refereeing World: Fernandez Borbalan named Technical Director of Spanish referees

At the end of June, the Royal Spanish Football Federation has agreed to renew the leadership of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA), as part of the ongoing process of promoting and updating the institution's technical system, in line with the work carried out by the refereeing system reform group, which includes representatives from the refereeing community, professional clubs, and the Federation itself. This opportunity for dialogue and proposals has helped lay the foundations for a more modern, efficient model adapted to the current needs of Spanish football. Following this process, RFEF has dismissed the former CTA President Luis Medina Cantalejo, along with his leadership team: Antonio Rubinos Pérez (deputy chairman), Vicente Lizondo Cortés, Bernardino González Vázquez, and José Lesma López (vice-presidents), and Carlos Clos Gómez (director of the VAR project).
