Alexia Putellas has backedthe15 players who arerefusingto play for Spain womens national team bo s Jorge Vilda, after the federation Dan Hampton Jersey doubled down on its support for the coach.Ballon dOr winner and Barcelona superstar Putellas effectively joined the rebellion on Friday, posting a statement from the disenchanted group.Spains football federation, the RFEF, was accused in the statement of using an infantilising tone when responding to what the players consider a serious matter.The players said it was with regret that they had taken their extreme stance, but that it wasdecided upon with a view to be able to achieve maximum profe sional and personal succe s again.Putellas is injured and not in contention for current Spain squads, with reports saying she was not among the players who emailed the RFEF to state their unavailability for future selection by Vilda.The statement she shared on social media condemned the RFEF for revealing the players had each expre sed worries about their emotional state and health.The precise cause of their di satisfaction with Vilda has not been disclosed, although the players statement said: In no case have we RESIGNED from the Spanish football team as indicated in the RFEFs official statement.As we Chicago Bears Jersey said in our private communication, we have maintained, continue to maintain and will continue to maintain an unquestionable commitment to theSpanish team.That is why we requested in our communication sent to the RFEF not to be summoned until situations are reversed that affect our emotional and personal state, our performance and, consequently, the results of the national team, and that could derive in undesirable injuries. These would be the reasons that lead us to make this decision. The players said they want a firm commitment to a profe sional project, in order to get the best performance from a group of players with whom we believe that Mitchell Trubisky Jersey more and better goals can be achieved.They stre sed they had no interest in entering into public wars, yet that is how this is now shaping up, with the two sides very much at odds.The players said they have never asked for the dismi sal of the coach,saying they understand that our job is not to choose said position, and said they hoped to explain in a constructive and honest way how the teams performance can be improved.It was wrong, they said, to consider their action as Charles Leno Jersey a whim or blackmail, and pointed to the negative impact being out of the team would have on each of them.Last but not least, the players added,we will not tolerate the infantilising tone with which the RFEF concludes its statement.We regret that in the context of womens sport we have to go to this extreme, as unfortunately has happened in other national teams and other sports historically worldwide, in order to advance in a powerful and ambitious profe sional project for the present and for future generations.The concluding line ofthe RFEFs statement on Thursday, which has caused dismay, said the players could only return to Spain duty in future if they accept their mistake and ask for forgivene s.Ana Alvarez, director of womens football at the RFEF, said on Jim McMahon Jersey Friday that Vildas position was unquestionable.He has an agreement to remain as coach until 2024, and his teamhave qualified for next years World Cup.Alvarez also said it would be in bad taste and not reality to suggest there was anything other than sporting reasons behind the womens opposition to Vilda remaining in charge.Alvarez said the 15 rebels would be granted their wish of being considered unavailable for selection, and that Vilda would choose hissquads from those willing to play for the national team.Veteran United States womens national team star Megan Rapinoe told the disenchanted Spanish group she would stand with them, saying in an Instagram post: This many players together like this is so powerful. We should all listen.
