The president of the Navarra Football Federation, Rafael del Amo, presented his resignation this Friday as president of the National Women’s Football Committee and vice president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), arguing that he cannot be in a project in which who doesn’t believe.”
“I have submitted my resignation after seeing that Luis Rubiales continues to lead the Federation. I have been the only president who has told him looking at his face. I believed in a female project that did not exist and he opted for it, with 27 million euros, I am super grateful. But I think, above all because of what happened in the box, that it is unacceptable,” Del Amo announced in statements to TVE collected by Europa Press.
The manager defended that his gesture in the box clutching his genitals “is not” worth it. “I told him: ‘I have to be honest with you, I think you can’t be here as president,'” he revealed emphatically.
“I have to thank him, I respect what he does, but I can’t be in a project that I don’t believe in, that’s clear. Yesterday we all thought that he was going to resign today,” added Del Amo, who believes that women’s football is coming out ” strengthened”. “Four days ago we were four cats and with this situation and with all this that is being talked about, for me it is important that the feminine is talked about, it is very important because it will grow more,” he said.
