The journalist Carlos Herrera announced this Wednesday his intention to run for the presidency of the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), scheduled for the first quarter of 2024 after the resignation of Luis Rubiales due to the controversial non-consensual kiss of Jenni Hermoso. . “I aspire to concentrate in my candidacy the desires of many Spanish athletes, football people, fans and in general all those who know what a ball is,” he explained in a video broadcast by ‘Marca’.

The news has caused a great surprise. “It’s no joke, I want to be president of the Federation,” said the veteran COPE journalist. Herrera pointed out that he cannot reveal his team, although he cited the names of the journalist Roberto Gómez, who asks him the questions in the video, and the former player ‘Mami’ Quevedo, who would hold the position of sports director. This is the former Spanish footballer who played as a midfielder in the 90s and debuted and retired for Cádiz, having also played for Atlético de Madrid and Sevilla, among other teams. Despite everything, the Almería communicator stated that he has time “until January” and that he wants to “work on it rigorously.”

After the scandal of the women’s team after being proclaimed World Cup champion due to Luis Rubiales’ non-consensual kiss to Jenni Hermoso, the Federation is provisionally chaired by Pedro Rocha. The replacement for Luis Rubiales, until then vice president, took office with the commitment to call elections and remodel the main structures of the organization.
