Real Madrid have secured a major victory off the pitch.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the Spanish club have officially won their long-running legal battle against La Liga regarding television rights management.

The dispute began in 2022 when La Liga excluded Real Madrid from meetings related to TV rights management.
Madrid challenged the decision in court.
And they kept winning.
According to Fabrizio Romano, multiple Spanish courts ruled in favor of Real Madrid. La Liga then appealed the rulings, hoping to overturn the decisions.
However, the Spanish Supreme Court sided with Real Madrid and rejected La Liga's appeal.

That was not the end.
According to Romano, La Liga made one final attempt to challenge the verdict. That effort was also rejected, meaning the case is now officially closed.
Real Madrid have been fully vindicated.
The outcome is likely to spark debate across Spanish football.
Many Madrid supporters will see this as another example of the club standing up to La Liga president Javier Tebas and winning.
Critics of La Liga may also question why one of the league's biggest clubs was excluded from such important meetings in the first place.
On the other hand, La Liga's supporters may argue that the dispute should now be put behind both parties so Spanish football can move forward.

What cannot be debated is the result.
According to Fabrizio Romano, every major legal challenge ended in Real Madrid's favor.
For a club that is used to winning trophies on the pitch, this is another victory—this time in the courtroom.
And after years of legal battles, the message from the courts is clear:
Real Madrid were right, and La Liga's case has finally come to an end.
