Joint announcement of the three groups

The publication triggered the immediate reaction of the three groups concerned to the words of the head of the RFEF. Valencia, Villarreal and Sevilla issued a joint statement claiming as much “Dialogue in which he speaks abusively, hostilely and arrogantly about the three clubs is unacceptable” and condemn his behavior.
