Brizio Carter named new chairman of Mexican referees

After the conflicts between referees of Liga MX and Héctor González Iñárritu, the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) announced his replacement with Arturo Brizio Carter (photo) to, once and for all, end the problems of Mexican refereeing. The decision came after Iñárritu and the Mexican Association of Referees (AMA) had a public dispute and had its peak when the TAS revoked the suspensions of a year to Enrique Triverio and Pablo Aguilar, players of Toluca and America. "We regret that the Referees Committee of the FMF, through its president Héctor González Iñárritu, agreed that the regulation should not be applied and that by its omission avoiding to set a precedent before the acts of violence against the referees", published AMA at the time when this issue was raised in May. Since then, the frictions between the referees and their head in the FMF did not end, until this month, when it was announced the change at the helm. Brizio Carter was active as referee in Mexican football between 1983 and 1998. He participated in two FIFA World Cups: USA 1994 and France 1998. In his first words as the new chairman of the FMF Referees Committee, Arturo Brizio made it clear that he arrives with the best willingness to contribute to the growth of the Mexican football refereeing: "It is a very nice challenge, I have been part of refereeing since I was a kid and this is a special moment in Mexican football. There is a lot of work to be done in refereeing and that is why I take on this challenge”. For his part, Decio de María, FMF president, was in charge of giving the news and sending a message to the ancestor Iñárritu: "We must build a project together, it is not a matter of people, but of concepts, to make a clear definition of the Mexican refereeing".

Bundesliga increased referee fees

The game fees for Bundesliga referees were raised after four years without any increase, confirmed DFL director Ansgar Schwenken. The fee for a first league game increases from 3800 euro to 5000 euro, assistant referees will get 2500 euro and the fourth official as well as the video assistant referee (VAR) 1250 euro. "We have been looking intensively on what a referee is doing on a daily basis, as he prepares for the entire season and for each individual game physically and mentally, so we decided, along with the DFB, to adjust their remuneration", Schwenken said. Besides the game fees, all Bundesliga referees also get an annual salary of 30000 euro. Other European referees earn 1300 euro plus an annual retainer of 45000 euro (England), 6000 euro (Spain), 3400 euro (Italy), 2751 euro (France), 1188 euro (Portugal).

Rizzoli ends his career to become Head of Serie A referees

Nicola Rizzoli will become the new Serie A referee designator, replacing Domenico Messina. According to Sky Sport Italia, the Italian Referees’ Association (AIA) will announce tomorrow that Messina is stepping down and Rizzoli will take his place. This is the end of Rizzoli’s long career on the field that reached the pinnacle in Brazil with the 2014 FIFA World Cup final Germany - Argentina. Rizzoli also refereed two major club finals, 2013 Champions League (Bayer Munich - Borussia Dortmund) and 2010 Europa League (Atletico - Fulham), as well as the Euro 2016 semi-final France - Germany. He has won six consecutive Serie A Referee of the Year Awards (2010-2016) and was chosen the IFFHS World’s Best Referee in 2014 and 2015. Rizzoli’s last match was Bosnia - Greece, on 9 June 2017. In recent months he had announced that he would not represent Italy at the 2018 World Cup. In Serie A since 2002 (Venice - Perugia), Rizzoli became a FIFA referee in 2007. Now, he decided not to continue as an active referee, changing roles and working again with his former assistants, Stefani and Faverani. (Source: La Gazzetta dello Sport)
