Marca: Real Madrid pursues Negrera case to the end, informs FIFA and demands punishment for Barcelona

According to Spanish media "Le Marca", Real Madrid pursued the case of Negrera to the end and asked relevant departments to punish Barcelona.

As the investigation into the Negrera case enters a decisive stage, Real Madrid has changed their strategy over the past few weeks. The case involved Barcelona paying more than 7 million euros to former vice chairman of the referee technical committee between 2001 and 2018. Real Madrid's senior executives have a clear attitude towards this and will never give up on holding the matter accountable.

What should be done specifically? Real Madrid is awaiting the judicial decision and informing FIFA of all circumstances related to the case. If the judicial determines that sports corruption exists, UEFA may also intervene in the investigation.

This case targets Barcelona during the reign of Bartomeu and Rossel, who were accused of being the initiators of all incidents and their consequences. Against this background, Real Madrid seeks to get an explanation from the judicial process: why the Spanish Football Association revised the statute of limitations on corruption in the ethics code in 2021, and stipulates that it only goes back for five years. This has allowed Barcelona's payment to Negrera to escape sports sanctions. Before this, once any form of corruption is proven, there is no time limit for the punishment.
