REVOLUTION IN LA LIGA: REFEREES TO SPEAK TO PRESS AFTER MATCHES

According to Diario AS's report; highly historical and revolutionary new decisions that will literally shake the football world deeply in the La Liga platform, being the top-level league of Spanish football, became official. The Spain football management, wanting to completely prevent never-ending discussions for years, decisions inside the pitch, and uncertainties experienced after the final whistle, aims to carry transparency to the peak by taking radical steps. According to this highly innovative and striking series of decisions taken, referees taking charge in the La Liga organization will now have to organize detailed press conferences by directly passing in front of cameras right after every official league match they manage. This step, taken in order to eliminate question marks of the sports media and fans about critical decisions given inside the pitch, prepares to go down in history as a massive transparency move rarely seen in world football. Managers on the pitch will appear before journalists in special press rooms prepared in the stadium after the final whistle blows and explain reasons for decisions given regarding controversial positions with clear expressions firsthand. The La Liga management, not remaining limited to only this transparency decision, plans to guarantee the flawless operation of the system by supporting the financial dimension of the innovative project with highly serious numbers. Along with the beginning of the new era, the Spain league management officially announced allocating a special budget in the exact amount of 500.000 Euros to be distributed among referees as an audiovisual bonus. This massive budget worth 500.000 Euros allocated will function as a brand new reward pool created to encourage names contributing to post-match interviews, press conferences, and visual media. The press conference step and the giant-budget incentive package managed to arouse a massive echo in European media.
