Barca could seal the title before the game if they beat Osasuna this weekend and Madrid fail to win against Espanyol.
”You have to tell that to Real Madrid. The regulations don’t mention a guard of honor policy; it’s a custom or tradition, and the continuity of customs and traditions depends on the clubs,” he said, per Mundo Deportivo.
“There’s no rule that establishes it, but I insist, custom and tradition dictate that a guard of honor should be given to the champion, but it has to be decided by the players and the club, Real Madrid. But hey, they’re not champions yet. You’re saying that too soon.”
Tebas also hit out at Real Madrid for their recent decision to sue La Liga over their protocol against discrimination, harassment, and violence in football.
“Nothing Real Madrid does surprises me,” he added. “They’re suing for this, and they’ll probably sue for something else.
“Real Madrid doesn’t like anything that involves coordinated action by LaLiga teams as a whole; it’s not their way of understanding professional football, and well, it doesn’t surprise me.”
