Casillas decides and wants to be RFEF president

For some weeks the possibility of Iker Casillas running for the RFEF presidency has been spoken about. In fact, the goalkeeper held a series of meeting to ask players and ex-players.

The ex-Real Madrid player could be seen alongside Puyol and Andrés Iniesta and even Aganzo, AFE president, who referred to the possibility that he will run for the role. "As president of the player's union, I like that there is a player in the presidency of the Federation", he told 'Marca'.

The programme 'El Larguero' has been able to inform that Iker Casillas has made the decision and will run at the elections, therefore he will be Luis Rubiales' 'rival'.

The goalkeeper will do so whenever that is, if it is brought forward or if it is in autumn. His entourage continues to work to ensure that Iker Casillas's bid will be strong when the date arrives.

Furthermore, the decision has also been communicated to the Higher Sports Council (CSE), in particular, to the president Irene Lozano after a secret meeting that the player requested, as 'El Partidazo de COPE' explained.

Meanwhile, the journalist Juan Antonio Alcalá informed that the Government confirmed the meeting with the CSD.
