New La Liga referees announced

The 2022/23 season is now underway. As well as clubs planning for next season, the referees are also getting down to work ahead of the new season. 

On Monday afternoon, the RFEF announced the different promotions and relegations in Spanish football. They also sent proposals to FIFA for who they want as international officials. 

In La Liga, Javier Iglesias Villanueva (Galician), brother of Ignacio who is now a La Liga VAR, and Juan Luis Pulido Santana (Las Palmas) have been promoted to La Liga while Milla Alvendiz and Hernandez Maeso are the back-ups. 

Santiago Jaime Latre and Adrian Cordero Vega have been relegated from the top flight. The former will remain exclusively as a VAR in La Liga while the latter will continue to referee in Segunda.
