MADRID (AP) — Former Spain coach Vicente del Bosque will lead the Spanish government’s commission overseeing the country’s soccer federation after a corruption probe targeted the current and former federation presidents.
Spain’s Higher Sports Council created the commission last week in an extraordinary measure for the coming months “in response to the crisis the institution is facing and in Spain’s national interests.”
The addition of Del Bosque may help the image of Spanish soccer after the government expressed concern for the reputational damage to the federation as the country is set to co-host the 2030 men’s World Cup with Portugal and Morocco. Spain is also hoping for success at this summer’s men’s European Championship and at the Paris Olympics.
“Del Bosque represents the best of our country in soccer,” Pilar Alegría, the minister representing Spain’s top sports authority, said at Tuesday’s announcement. “He is our world champion, our European champion. He is a beloved man.”
