Mateu Lahoz and Medina Cantalejo They will not continue to work as field referees in Spain, as reported by the president of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA) to both on Monday, as reported by Cadena Ser. Their options for the 2023/24 season now go through the to occupy a position as VAR referees.
The news confirms the rumors that were around last week about these two collegiate veterans, both over 45 years old, which remained active thanks to the rule implemented on July 1, 2021 that allows the age limit to be exceeded, always with the authorization of the president of the CTA. However, on this occasion, neither will be renewed.
Now, the option that both do have after being left out of the list of referees for next season – selection work usually carried out on these dates- is to take a leap to VAR. The video arbitration system has been the outlet chosen by many of the most famous names in our league, and now it could be the turn of the Valencian and the Madrid player.
This decision comes at a difficult time for the CTA, surrounded by the rarefied climate of the ‘Negreira case’, which on Monday also reported two new episodes of violence against the arbitration team during this last day of competition.
