Los Blancos can count Javier Tebas among their supporters, with the LFP president confessing his passion for the club in a recent interview
La Liga Boss |
La Liga president Javier Tebas has risked causing consternation in Clasico week by admitting he is a Real Madrid supporter.
The 53-year-old, who has led the LFP since April 2013, confessed he has followed the club since childhood.
Tebas was born in Costa Rica but revealed his support for the club in order to avoid being called a hypocrite if the fact came out from elsewhere.
"If I say I don't support [Madrid], then that would be hypocritical and I would be painted as a liar,"
"And I certainly don't like to be called a liar. Imagine if I said that I loved all teams, and then it came out that I supported Madrid since I was a boy, went to 27 Clasicos in the past, that I celebrated Madrid wins with friends in a bar. I prefer to call it as it is."
