Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti expects La Liga strike action to be averted
Friday 8 May 2015 12:32, UK
Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti says he expects strike action to be averted in Spanish football, after the prospect became very real this week.
The LFP and Spain's football federation (RFEF) have been involved in a disagreement with the government on a new law on collective bargaining for TV rights.
That was followed hours later by the Spanish football league saying it would take legal action against the federation.

But Ancelotti said on Friday: "I think La Liga will continue normally. I think the parties involved will find a solution."
Spain's professional league (LFP) have started legal action to prevent the suspension of the final two La Liga match days.
The final two match-days in La Liga would both be affected, as well as the Copa del Rey final between Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao at the end of the month.
