Conversations between the on-field referee and video assistant referee (VAR) in La Liga and the Spanish Super Cup will be made public at the end of each matchday starting January, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) said on Tuesday.

The new initiative will launch on January 10th with the Super Cup semi-final between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

It will be used in La Liga from January 12th onwards.

"The RFEF and LaLiga have agreed to start publishing the images and audio of the conversations between the on-field referee and the VAR officials following a VAR review and the use of the pitchside monitor," the RFEF said in a statement.

The move was aimed at "making refereeing in professional football and the competitions themselves more transparent".

"The fans' experience will be improved and a better understanding of the refereeing decisions will be appreciated by the viewers," the RFEF added.
