Sports 4 sources 3 countries 52m ago

La Liga president Javier Tebas has publicly called for the resignation of FIFA president Gianni Infantino, asserting that the governing body is currently destroying the football industry. Tebas’s comments represent a significant escalation in the ongoing friction between major European leagues and the international football federation.

The criticism centers on what Tebas describes as irresponsible decision-making by FIFA. Specifically, he pointed to the implementation of hydration breaks during matches, characterizing them as a pretext for advertising rather than a genuine player welfare measure. By challenging the leadership of the organization, Tebas has signaled a deepening divide regarding how the global game is managed and commercialized.
