Luis Rubiales' Kiss Controversy: Spanish FA Regional Presidents ask the embattled coach to resign
The Spanish football federation’s regional presidents have demanded that Luis Rubiales “immediately resign”, pulling support for the football chief days after its members heartily applauded his vow to stay on.
Yesterday, more than a week after Rubiales grabbed forward Jenni Hermoso by the head and planted a kiss on her lips, the federation’s regional presidents were summoned to an “extraordinary and urgent” meeting in Madrid to assess the impact of the crisis.
A committee consisting of the presidents of the RFEF's regional federations met for five hours yesterday to discuss next steps after FIFA hit Rubiales with a provisional suspension for 90 days and the Spanish government also sought his removal over his behaviour following the Women's World Cup final.
They emerged six hours later, publishing a unanimous joint statement: “After the latest events and the unacceptable behaviours that have seriously damaged the image of Spanish football, we request that Mr Luis Rubiales immediately present his resignation as president of the Spanish football federation.”

Spain is reeling after a deadly 16-day heatwave claimed more than 1,100 lives, with temperatures soaring above 40°C nationwide. Officials reported 1,149 excess deaths, mostly among vulnerable seniors and women. Madrid and Seville were hit hardest, with the urban heat island effect amplifying conditions. Wildfires in Catalonia destroyed farmland and worsened air quality. Experts warn climate change has made heatwaves hotter, longer, and three times deadlier. Spain, already scarred by past deadly summers, now faces a mounting public health and environmental crisis.

U.S. President Donald Trump, 79, has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI)—a vein disorder causing blood to pool in the legs—after observers noted swelling during a FIFA event. The White House confirmed the condition is “benign and common,” especially among older adults. Tests ruled out more dangerous issues like deep vein thrombosis (DVT), heart failure, or kidney problems.
CVI affects roughly 5% of adults and becomes more prevalent with age, weight gain, or prolonged standing. Trump’s condition appears to be in an early stage, with no signs of ulcers or severe skin changes. Bruises on his hands were also explained as side effects of aspirin use and vigorous handshaking. He reportedly feels “no discomfort” and remains active. Experts stress that while CVI is chronic, it can be managed with compression therapy, lifestyle changes, and minor interventions.
