Rubiales wants to make big changes to La Liga

Luis Rubiales, the president of the Spanish Football Federation, says he wants to see some big changes made to La Liga and will talk to Javier Tebas about his ideas.

The 43-year-old wants to have “fewer matchdays” and “bigger spectacles” and also wants games played at “neutral venues.”

Rubiales also mentioned the possibility of playing games in Miami again, something he was previously against when there were plans for a Barcelona vs Girona game in the US, and says it’s something that could be discussed.

Here’s what he’s had to say:

“In the next few days I’m going to ask Javier Tebas to sit down with me to try and change the format of La Liga.
