I’m going to sanction them if what I’m hearing is ‘TRUE’, FIFA president finally address Madrid Saga – Vows to sanction Madrid if found guilty
In an unexpected move, FIFA President Gianni Infantino has addressed the controversy surrounding Real Madrid. Speaking at a press conference in Zurich, Infantino voiced his concerns about reports of potential rule violations by Madrid. He emphasized FIFA’s commitment to fairness and transparency in football, warning that any club found guilty of breaking regulations would face strict penalties.
Infantino stated, “I am hearing concerning reports, and if these prove accurate, we will have no choice but to take appropriate disciplinary actions. Rules are meant to protect the integrity of the game, and no club, no matter how influential, is above them.”
While Infantino did not specify the alleged violations, sources indicate potential issues with transfer regulations, financial fair play, or player welfare standards. Real Madrid, one of football’s most successful and financially powerful clubs, has often faced scrutiny over high-profile transfers, sparking discussions on the financial ethics of top clubs.
Infantino assured that any sanctions would follow a comprehensive, unbiased investigation. “We want to thoroughly review the matter,” he added, stressing that due process would be followed. Yet, he made it clear that any confirmed breaches would be dealt with firmly.
His remarks come amid increasing calls from fans and stakeholders for greater transparency in club operations and stricter enforcement of financial regulations. Many view Infantino’s comments as a positive step toward holding even the most prestigious clubs accountable.
Real Madrid has yet to respond publicly, though sources suggest the club is ready to cooperate with any FIFA investigation. As the football world waits for further developments, FIFA’s handling of this case could set a new precedent for regulating elite clubs and reinforce the organization’s dedication to fair play.
