Tebas, 57, had stepped down from the post last December but later had announced that he will be competing for the post. His new presidency was confirmed on Monday, with no candidate having run against him.

"Following the presentation of a single candidacy for the presidency of the La Liga Nacional de Futbol Profesional, and this being valid, Javier Tebas is definitively named president of LaLiga for a period of four years, without the need to hold an Extraordinary General Assembly," said La Liga in an official statement.

"A new political term is starting, where it is possible there may be laws and directives proposed which affect our institution and our interests," goal.com quoted him as saying.

"The person who has to do it should do so with the backing of the clubs at least for four years."
