Four months after his retreat like professional referee, the future of Mateu Lahoz aims to the presidency of the Real Spanish Federation of Football (RFEF). The chaos generated by the resignation of Luis Rubiales after his infamous kiss to Jenni Beautiful has left to the Federation in the limbo and, in the middle of the uncertainty by the one who will assume the reins of the maximum body of the Spanish football, the ex Valencian referee can give the hit in the next elections.

In this sense, the newspaper 'MARK' ensures that the candidature of the Valencian generates consensus in the clubs, the referee's community, LaLiga and the Upper Council of Sports (CSD), in addition to having the support of the FIFA and of some territorial presidents. In principle, the name of the ex referee was not on the table of applicants to the charge, but his position of figure recognised to international level, with more than 30 years like referee, give him advantage in the 'career' to the presidency of the Federation.

The next mandamás of the RFEF will have an enormous challenge to reorganise to all the dependencies of the Federation after the derivative dismissals of the goodbye of Rubiales and, for the clubs and the CSD, the figure of Lahoz can lidiar with the pressure and generate consensus.

In principle, the elections to the presidency of the RFEF aim to March like ideal month to make . Like this the things, the applicants will have around four months to look for the votes. In the case of Mateu Lahoz, the ex referee still has not pronounced in this regard. One of his possible opponents can be Pedro Rocha, current interim president the one who has opted by a low profile to exert his charge.

Other names that could suceder to Luis Rubiales

In addition to the extremeño, also outline like possible successors of Luis Rubiales Salvador Gomar and Paco Díez, presidents of the Territorial Valencian and Madrilenian, respectively. Rocha Was, before his nomination like interim president of the RFEF, the attendant of the Territorial Extremeña. Other quoted names by 'MARK' are Rami Aboukhar (ex CEO of the Santader), Carlos Suárez (ex president of the Valladolid), David Aganzo (president of AFE), Emilio García Silvero (boss of the legal department of FIFA and right hand of Infantino) and Elvira Andrés, current director of Cabinet of the Federation. Any of them account, for the moment, with the necessary support to win the presidency of the RFEF.
