Not even the coronavirus pandemic has softened the power struggle between soccer organisations in Spain.

The outbreak has actually strained relationships between the Spanish soccer federation, the Spanish league and the Spanish players' union even more.

They have been at odds over a variety of subjects in recent years, and the disputes have continued during the pandemic despite their own calls for unity.

The last few weeks alone have seen several spats. The federation has accused the players' union of having a "hidden agenda."
Both the league and the players' union denied the agreement existed. The union said it disliked the "tone of the meeting" and that it felt it was under "direct attack."
