⚖️ Referees' union denounces Florentino Pérez and Real Madrid The Spanish Association of Football Referees (AESAF) has taken a firm step in defense of the group. The union has filed two complaints with the Anti-Violence Commission, aimed directly at Florentino Pérez and Real Madrid TV. The main reason lies in the content continuously broadcast by the club’s official channel.

According to the organization, these videos encourage targeting, hostility, and increase the pressure on referees in Spanish football. The union insists that the systematic dissemination of these messages seriously discredits the refereeing collective. This situation, they add, damages the climate of respect and creates a tense environment that can lead to physical or verbal violence.

Valentín Pizarro, president of AESAF, highlighted the association’s absolute commitment to guaranteeing the safety of referees. The leader stressed the importance of working firmly to protect the dignity of all its members. Lastly, the organization has requested the collaboration of sports institutions and the Higher Sports Council (CSD).

The aim is to strengthen prevention measures and values-based education within the national football landscape. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇪🇸 here.
