Barcelona could file motion to suspend La Liga President Javier Tebas over infraction
Barcelona President Joan Laporta delivered on last week's promise to respond to La Liga's public statement about their salary limit situation, as the Blaugrana released a forceful statement on their behaviour. The consequences may not end there either.

With the two institutions battling over the registration of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor, which La Liga appealed yesterday, Barcelona emitted a statement announcing they would be stepping back from La Liga's delegate commission. They also 'required' La Liga to halt public communication about the club's finances, and accused the league of inciting a campaign of misinformation against Barcelona. In their statement, they cite the breach of a confidentiality clause in La Liga's rules too.

Now, President of CENAFE (Centre for the Education of Coaches) Miguel Angel Galan has published on his social media account that Barcelona are considering filing for the suspension of La Liga President Javier Tebas as a result. The Administrative Tribunal for Sports have already fined Tebas for a previous infraction after a case was brought by Real Madrid.
Galan continues on to say that as it was a second infraction against the sports law, it could result in Tebas' suspension from office should Barcelona file a motion against him. He also includes the fact that in previous cases, it resulted in the sacking of former Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) President Angel Maria Villar, the suspension of ex-RFEF President Luis Rubiales, and ex-interim President Pedro Rocha of the same organisation, at Galan's hand.
Whether Barcelona do decide to go all out against Tebas is another matter. Despite frequent battles over their salary limit situation in recent years, relations between Laporta and Tebas are reportedly good, with each understanding that publicly the pair must defend their position. Should they decide to do so, Barcelona would no doubt take into account whom Tebas' successor is likely to be and what that might mean for their relations with La Liga going forward.

Girona ‘very close' to signing of Getafe star
A member of the midfield ranks at Getafe is inching towards an incoming move to La Liga rivals Girona. That's according to Mundo Deportivo, citing journalist Ivan Quirós, who points towards Carles Aleñá as the player in question. Advertisement Former Barcelona talent Aleñá is for his part fresh off a season out on loan away from Getafe, with Deportivo Alavés. The 27-year-old, all told, racked up 25 league appearances during his time in Vitoria, chipping in with a pair of assists along the way. And Aleñá's performances, it would appear, proved enough to pique the attentions of a third Spanish top-flight club. As per MD, Girona have already kickstarted negotiations with their Getafe counterparts, over a summer deal for the midfielder. Aleñá is for his part keen to take his talents to the Estadi Montilivi, attracted by both the Girona project, and the prospect of being closer to home. Advertisement Though details remain to be ironed out between the parties, with just a year remaining on the player's contract at the Estadio Coliseum, a transfer is considered as highly likely to ultimately come to fruition.

Schmitt, the top-ranked player in the state of Colorado in both On3 and 247Sports' rankings. He is a composite four-star recruit who held offers 21 power-conference schools, though he had finalized to OU, Colorado and Alabama entering Saturday. Schmitt is the second offensive lineman in coach Brent Venables' 2026 class, joining composite four-star recruit Noah Best from Texas. He's also the 10th pick-up for the Sooners since the beginning of June with his commitment coming a day after the Sooners lost out on the nation's No. 4 junior-college player, Josiah Jefferson, brother of ex-OU safety Tony Jefferson. OU now has 14 players in the class, which entered Saturday ranked 22nd in On3's rankings and 43rd in 247Sports' rankings. Schmitt's commitment will almost certainly boost both. During his announcement, Schmitt said Oklahoma "definitely feels like home." The mark was pointed because the University of Colorado is less than 45 minutes' drive from Schmitt's home town of Windsor, Colorado. Schmitt also remarked about the differences between Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders and Venables, plus offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh. "He's my kind of coach," Schmitt said. "The kind of coach I need." .
