Deportivo has asked the Contentious-Administrative Courts of Madrid to stop the start of LaLiga SmartBank, scheduled for next week.

The Coruña team has requested the very precautionary so that the season does not start in the Second Division, after the Superior Sports Council (CSD) had mediated last week so that LaLiga could carry out its calendar proposal with 22 teams, instead of the 24 claimed by the Coruña, Numancia and the Spanish Federation.

The same day that the CSD's decision was revealed, on August 27, Deportivo's legal advisor,

Óscar Rama

, announced that the club would request this measure and then predicted that in "4 or 5 days" they could get a "response."

Sources of the Galician club have confirmed to Efe that this measure has already been presented in the Madrid courts with which it intends that the season does not start in the Second Division on the weekend of September 12 and 13.

Deportivo and Numancia fell on the last day of last season, in which the circular of the Spanish Federation that forced them to be held on a unified schedule was breached.

The cases of Covid-19 in Fuenlabrada, which had to face Deportivo, led LaLiga, the Federation and the CSD to suspend that match and not the rest of those on that date of the championship.

The results of

Albacete

and

Lugo

condemned Deportivo and Numancia to relegation to Second Division B and the Galician club considers that it was an "outrage".

Deportivo, in addition, maintains an appeal in the ordinary courts for the alleged improper alignment of Extremadura in the match of the penultimate day of the silver category.
