Real Madrid accuses La Liga president of targeting the club
Real Madrid said on September 22 that Javier Tebas had used his position to target the club and should represent every team fairly. The claim is Real’s position in the dispute after the Madrid derby, not an independent finding that La Liga lacks neutrality.

Real Madrid issued a statement on September 22 in response to La Liga president Javier Tebas, after he criticized content linked to Real Madrid TV and media outlets close to the club. Real said Tebas was using his institutional position to target the club and called for the league's leader to represent all clubs fairly.
The latest dispute followed the Madrid derby, when Jose Mourinho criticized refereeing and Tebas responded on social media. Real argued that Tebas's comments damage confidence in La Liga's fairness. That remains the club's allegation and position, not an independent finding that the league has lost its neutrality.
