UEFA are keen to march onwards with their investigation into Barcelona and El Caso Negreira.
Yesterday UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin told the press that the Negreira case was one of the most serious situations that he had ever seen in football. UEFA have opened an investigation that could bring serious consequences for the Blaugrana, including a suspension from European competition if it is deemed that they tried to influence matches.
Marca report that UEFA have internally decided that they want to a verdict on the matter by June. If they do decide on a punishment Barcelona disagree with, then they will likely go through the UEFA Court of Appeals, followed by the Court of Arbtitration for Sport to appeal their sentence.
Hence why they want to get the process completed as soon as possible. Their idea is that the appeals would be finished before the start of the current season, whereas it would be far more difficult to uphold a suspension once the current season has started.
Diario AS go on to say that the precedent set with Malaga is concerning those in Barcelona. Malaga were banned from Europe for a year for financial irregularities, where UEFA chose not to admit them into the Europa League. It was not a sanction as such, rather UEFA decided they were inelegible due to their tax issues until they were cleared up. While Barcelona’s issues are not financial, they too could be susceptible to exclusion if they cannot come up with a reasonable explanation by then.
Previous reports indicate that Barcelona will sue UEFA should they attempt to exclude the club before justice has run its course. The lawsuit could be worth up to €100m.
“Yesterday UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin told the press that the Negreira case was one of the most serious situations that he had ever seen in football.”
Sounds…. Great! Uefa, unlike Spanish tax investigators, dont have a conflict of interests – they want to see bribELona continue paying taxes, ceferin doesnt. Prepare your buttocks.
“including a suspension from European competition if it is deemed that they tried to influence matches.”
Sounds even better. Id suggest the same punishment in accordance with calciopoli and Fiorentina precedent – exclusion from CL. Make that two seasons, it will have a intimidating effect on future offenders who bribe refs.
“Diario AS go on to say that the precedent set with Malaga is concerning those in Barcelona. Malaga were banned from Europe for a year for financial irregularities, where UEFA chose not to admit them into the Europa League”
Of course that they should be worried. Their mouth breather fans are already melting down, like bribELona did vs Roma.
“While Barcelona’s issues are not financial, they too could be susceptible to exclusion if they cannot come up with a reasonable explanation by then.”
Will be hard to come up with an explaination to Negreiras “I could help you with VAR” and “You would be better off with me” when they lost a season. But given that lies and deceit are a part of cataIan dna, Im looking forward to creative excuses coming from them.
Ceferin just wants to make an example of Barcelona, as they were a major driving force behind the creation of the Super League. This is not about bringing justice to the football world. If it were, UEFA would have long since turned its eye on PSG, City & co. But UEFA likes the Arab oil money just fine, why destroy relations?
I say no to injustice
You know whats good medicine against being made example of?
Dont give anoyone a reason to someone to make an example of you.
Unfortunately for your argumentation, it’s pretty transparent. To punish someone who influence refs, refs that at the end of the day asked for more money “I could help you with VAR” and said “You would be better off with me” is actually the definition of justice as legal system is based on precedents. Those would be calciopoli teams and Malaga as match fixing is believe it or not, both against the rules and a crime.
Ceferin didnt force them to pay millions to six different Negreira companies. Its as Newton put it case of action and reaction. That ceferin isnt as vigilant in other breaches is another story, but it doesnt rationalise this in any shape or form.
In principle Im against financial doping aka breach of FFP so we can at least agree on one subject.
Shut the fuck up all you anti barcas enemy of progress, you claim barca bribe ref yet ref favours madrid in every game,are you all too blind to see that this is a mere scandal? Barca will come out if ut because God knows the truth. Visca el barca
“ref yet ref favours madrid in every game”
Conjecture
“I can help you with VAR” “You would be better off without me”
1,7 millions on refs paid
Facts.
Prepare yourself gurI, investigation is incoming thanks to God as he likes justice too.
Urfa if you are CREDIBLE. Check your own referees who give champions league trophies to madrid on a silver platta. DON’T INVESTIGATE ANY TEAM. investorage your DIRTY referees. when you relise that over ten years r Madrid is winning the champions league, YOU brought dubious BALLOTING at knock out stages for r Madrid to get cheap teams… they winnig for YOU ( uefa) INVESTIGATE your outfit, THIEVES.
“DON’T INVESTIGATE ANY TEAM.”
