Luis #Rubiales in 2018 hired his uncle, Juan Rubiales, to be Chief of Staff at #RFEF. Now Juan Rubiales says, Luis used the RFEF to satisfy his ego, would be arrogant and disrepectful. Luis would need a “program to be re-educated socially and in terms of relationships to women.” He would have had parties with 18 y/o girls, paid by RFEF. https://www.elconfidencial.com/espana/2023-08-30/rubiales-salobrena-rfef-chicas-hijas-entrevista_3726413/?utm_source=social&utm_medium=mastodon&utm_campaign=@Tibor

@Tibor @Tibor Guess they all have found themselves in absolutely entrenched positions all too quickly. Knowing how this would unravel in advance, I may even guess Rubiales would be more likely to resign.
