The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF)<\/a> has a new president. On Monday, the governing body of Spanish football elected Rafael Louz\u00e1n as the new leader for the next four years with a notable difference over his main opponent, Salvador Gomar. The Galician candidate received 90 votes, compared to 43 for his Valencian rival<\/strong>, in an election where there were only four blank votes and one null vote.<\/p> After the interim of Pedro Rocha, who ended up disqualified following the controversial departure of Luis Rubiales, Louz\u00e1n becomes the twenty-sixth president of the RFEF and will try to calm the waters within the institution<\/strong>. Although the elections were held in a cordial atmosphere, the day began with the withdrawal of Sergio Merch\u00e1n, an Extremaduran candidate who was the third aspirant for the position.
