RFEF President Pedro Rocha Suspended for Misconduct
News summary

Pedro Rocha, the president of the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), has been suspended for two years by the Spanish Court of Arbitration in Sport for abusing his authority, including dismissing the federation's general secretary and presenting the RFEF in a corruption case. Rocha's actions during his interim role have come under scrutiny, leading to fines and a ban that could impact his re-election plans. Both Rocha and his predecessor, Luis Rubiales, are embroiled in a corruption investigation related to the federation. Despite the suspension, Rocha intends to appeal, potentially allowing him to stay in office and run for re-election. The RFEF will need to call for elections to find a new president, with Maria Angeles Garcia Chaves temporarily replacing Rocha as the first woman to lead the organization.
