The Albanian Football Federation has selected a Spanish expert to lead the referees' association.
The Albanian Football Association (AFC) on Friday introduced Bernardino Gonzalez Vazquez as the new director of the Arbitration Department.
Vazquez was a long-time referee in La Liga and an international referee. He also worked as a head of referees' associations.
"The key in refereeing, but also in life, is work. In Spain we have a saying: the harder you work, the luckier you are. My message to Albanian referees is very simple: I will be one of you and I will do my best for you to grow, improve and develop," said Vazquez.
Several other federations have also appointed foreign experts to head their referee associations. Not long ago, Englishman Anthony Taylor took over the leadership of the Turkish Football Referees Association.
