"After the suspension by FIFA, in addition to the rest of the proceedings against me, it is clear that I will not be able to return to my position."Īmid the fallout from the incident, Spain coach Jorge Vilda was fired on Tuesday. "I have also informed him that I have done the same with my position at UEFA, so that a replacement for my role as vice president can be sought. "I have handed in my resignation to the acting president, Pedro Rocha," Rubiales confirmed in an open letter published on Sunday. His behaviour, which also saw him grabbing his crotch and kissing other players, subsequently led to him being suspended from all football-related activity by FIFA, the sport's top governing body, for 90 days as it carries out its own investigation.
Later on Sunday, the RFEF confirmed Rubiales' resignation in a statement and that he would be stepping down as a vice president with UEFA. He faces charges of sexual assault and coercion for his conduct after last month's Women's World Cup final, which Spain won 1-0 against England. Hermoso filed a criminal complaint last week, which led to prosecutors filing a case with Spain's top court against Rubiales. Luis Rubiales has resigned as the president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) because of the ongoing investigations against him following his unsolicited kiss on Spain forward Jenni Hermoso.
