Real Madrid has turned to the international press to support its demand for the resignation of JavierTebas, president of LaLiga, following controversial statements that compared television coverage of the club to Nazi propaganda. A statement was published on the club's official website that compiles the reactions of prestigious media in Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, the United States and Argentina, all condemning the provocation and demanding Tebas' departure.
The origin of the controversy dates back to the comment of the president of LaLiga, who described the “method” of Real Madrid television as “Nazi propaganda” in the style of Goebbels. The reaction was immediate and forceful: Real Madrid, along with other sports teams and entities, asked for Tebas' resignation "immediately", arguing that the comparison was offensive and derogatory to the victims of Nazism. The club stressed that the statement crossed a line that cannot be repaired.
Among the media that expressed their position, the German newspaper *Kicker* stands out, which described the comment as “an insult to the victims” and stated that “Tebas must resign.” Thomas Böker, spokesperson for *Kicker*, explained that the comparison with Nazi propaganda was unacceptable given the history and seriousness of the issue. Likewise, France's *L'Equipe* denounced the provocation and called for Tebas' resignation, while Italy's *La Gazzetta dello Sport* added that the situation represented a “disagreement” in the league and demanded the president's departure.
Real Madrid also cited the BBC, ESPN, the American newspaper *The New York Times* and the Argentine newspaper *Olé*, all of which published headlines reflecting the magnitude of the controversy and international pressure on LaLiga. In its statement, the club emphasized that the opinion of these media reinforced the need for a firm response and that the reputation of Spanish football was at stake.
With international pressure and media condemnation, JavierTebas' situation has become increasingly unsustainable. Real Madrid hopes that the demand for his resignation is taken seriously and that measures are taken to prevent comments of this nature from affecting the image of the sport again. The club will continue to monitor the evolution of the case and is preparing to act in case the pressure does not produce the expected response.
