Real Madrid 'want to QUIT La Liga' and seek 'asylum' in rival league in move that would rock world football

Real Madrid have been tipped to leave La Liga and play in another league.

Real Madrid are weighing up quitting La Liga and moving to another league after huge issues with president Javier Tebas and the referees.

Los Blancos are the most successful club in the history of La Liga, having claimed a 36th title last season.

They remain top of the table ahead of Atletico Madrid and Barcelona as it stands but Real have been left furious by what they believe to be a number of injustices against them.

In the 1-1 draw with Osasuna at the weekend, Jude Bellingham was sent off for a comment which the referee deemed to be dissent and is said to be at risk of being banned for 12 games if his words are considered to be insulting.

According to a report from SPORT, Real see Tebas as their number one enemy - believing he is taking advantage of them and "leading a crusade" against the club.

Fans on social media are urging the club to exit the Spanish top flight because of the disgruntlement with the top brass and the report notes the club could look to "request asylum in the Bundesliga, Serie A or Ligue One".

Doing so would be a complicated process which would require approval from FIFA, as well as the green light from La Liga themselves to facilitate the departure of arguably their biggest club.

Real would also need to get the go-ahead from UEFA which could be a tricky step considering they were a driving force behind the rival European Super League which was ultimately blocked after monumental fan backlash.

However, in December it was reported that the Super League had essentially been relaunched with a new project that would "democratise football by allowing fans everywhere to watch" for free.

It was suggested that the aim would be to get the competition up and running in September 2026, though Real's current predicament may well accelerate proceedings.

SPORT say Real "will not stop studying the possibility of also moving forward with a European Super League that will distance them from Tebas".

Though the club have an ill feeling after the draw with Osasuna, they have turned their attentions to the Champions League play-off second leg with Manchester City at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday.

Real lead 3-2 after a last-gasp Bellingham winner at the Etihad Stadium last week.
