This afternoon, LALIGA was informed of the Resolution issued by the President of the Higher Sports Council which, without having given LALIGA or the RFEF an opportunity to be heard, granted the precautionary measures requested by FC Barcelona and the players Mr Daniel Olmo Carvajal and Mr Pau Víctor Delgado. This ruling maintains the validity of the players' licences until a final decision has been made on the appeal filed against the Agreement of the Monitoring Committee of the RFEF–LALIGA Coordination Agreement. In light of this Resolution, LALIGA would like to clarify the following:
- The Resolution was adopted without having forwarded the appeal to LALIGA or the RFEF, nor granting either party the opportunity to submit their arguments. Therefore, LALIGA is currently unaware of the reasoning set forth by the players and FC Barcelona in the appeal.
- LALIGA will thoroughly review the content of the decision with a view to filing the appropriate appeals, while also expressing its complete disagreement with the decision.
- Apart from the above, the Agreement of the Monitoring Committee of the RFEF-LALIGA Coordination Agreement reflects LALIGA’s earlier decision to deny preliminary licences, and of the RFEF’s decision to deny final licences to the footballers Mr Daniel Olmo and Mr Pau Víctor, as stated in the official record.
- However, the Resolution references certain justifications concerning the players’ right to pursue their sports careers. This is a matter that LALIGA will assess once it has received the relevant documentation.
