Javier Tebas Provisionally Reelected as La Liga President

Tebas' Fourth Mandate to be Confirmed Next Week, Set to Lead Until 2027

  • Javier Tebas has been provisionally reelected as president of the Spanish league, La Liga, with his fourth mandate set to be confirmed next week.
  • Tebas' resignation two weeks ago was a tactical move to facilitate a quick return in time for a key period over the coming month.
  • Tebas, who has been La Liga president since 2013, has been praised for improving the finances of clubs and the league in general, and for successfully restructuring the league’s sales of television rights.
  • Despite having critics within Spanish football, including clashes with Real Madrid president Florentino Perez and Barcelona chief Joan Laporta, Tebas has built strong alliances with many of the country’s most prominent football presidents and executives.
  • Tebas will be officially back as head of La Liga in time to react to the European Court of Justice ruling about the European Super League, which is due on December 21.
