"We cannot lag behind society."

Elvira Andrés outlines her intentions for leading the Presidency Office of the RFEF, looking at a society that, in her own words, "expects transparency and good governance from institutions." She explained, "Institutions cannot afford to lag behind the citizens."

"We must meet those social needs in critical areas such as equality, sustainability, transparency... The RFEF will be a benchmark in these areas," emphasized Elvira Andrés. She added, "We must not waste a minute in getting to work on this task."
