What is behind the alleged corruption case within the Catalan club?

In a written complaint sent to the press by the Barcelona Public Prosecutor's Office, Barcelona and the other defendants are also accused of "continuous misrepresentation and falsification of commercial documents".

The first defendant in the case:

According to the prosecutor's office, the defendant holds a position in the club and is paid by two companies founded by Enriquez Negrera, who was vice president of CTA from January 2011 to June 2018 and from 1993 to 2018. I knew the payment. I represent Barcelona and work for my immediate interest.

The Barcelona Public Prosecutor's Office on Friday charged FC Barcelona with "ongoing corruption between individuals in the world of sport" and other charges related to the alleged payment scandal that has rocked Spanish football.

The club, through both Rosselló and Bartomeu, is accused of having reached a "confidential verbal agreement" with Enriquez Negrera with the aim of "establishing proceedings in favour of Barcelona in the form of an arbitration award".

The most important thing in the Attorney General's report:

According to reports from the Barcelona Public Prosecutor's Office, two companies established were linked to Enriquez Negrera and he owned 100% and 95% of the shares of Dasnil 95 and Nisdal respectively.

Investigations revealed that the club paid a total of 3,175,589.21 dollars (2,971,673.01 euros) to the two companies, under the pretext of “estimating artistic videos.” After Enriquez Negrera was sacked as vice president of CTA in 2018, payments from Barcelona stopped.

Enriquez Negrera's position:

In February 2019, Enriquez Negrera faxed Bartomeu "accusing him of ending a long-term relationship, insisting that a solution be found for both parties, and warning him of the consequences of not doing so."

While I do not intend to take note of all the misconduct of which I am aware and have lived directly with someone at the club, if you reconsider your decision to complete the continuing agreement, you will be held liable to me. I urge you to use my services until the end of your term, ”writes Enriquez Negrera.

Club sources told the press that the club had not issued an official statement, but that their initial reaction was to expect an indictment after the recent events, although the reports were "very early".

European Union reaction:

UEFA refused to comment on whether or not it was investigating the club, however, at a press conference in early March, UEFA Secretary General Andrew Camps said the federation had not taken any action on the matter. Send the information to the UEFA Integrity Unit.
