The acting president of the Xunta, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has not ruled out the possibility of taking legal action for the trip from Fuenlabrada to A Coruña despite the fact that it had already detected four infected with coronavirus, who stayed in Madrid, and without waiting for the result of the last PCR tests carried out on the expedition.
In the press conference after the weekly government meeting, Núñez Feijóo explained that for the moment a information file that the public health inspectors are in charge of, although it is not ruled out to refer this aspect to legal advice if it is clear from the opinion.
Asked about the possibility of following in the footsteps of the A Coruña City Council, which asked the Prosecutor’s Office to investigate the facts related to the Fuenlabrada trip “in case they constituted a crime”, Núñez Feijóo has defended that if the legal advice of the Xunta “He recommends it, we will.”
“We want to know exactly what happened, we do not hide our concern about this matter” which, in his opinion, “from a sporting point of view is not understood, and from a health point of view is absolutely rejectionable.”
In any case, for the Galician president it is accredited that the trip of the Madrid team “never should have happened”Therefore, the risks must be “assumed” by the club or by La Liga, since it is not a question of a displacement of a “foreign or amateur” team that does not know the existing protocol.
“The rules are the rules and public health is above any sporting competition,” reiterated Núñez Feijóo, who also regretted that this “irresponsible” conduct could negatively impact the city’s tourism sector.
Regarding the sports field in which significant damage has also been generated due to the occurrence of this episode on the last day of the Second Division, Núñez Feijóo has pointed out that Deportivo must inquire if there is reason to undertake “the appropriate legitimate actions”.
