DESPITE THE INVESTIGATION OF THE 'CASE NEGREIRA'
The UEFA Committee will give the go-ahead for Barça to play the Champions League
New information ensures that the Committee that grants licenses in UEFA will allow Barça to play the next Champions League regardless of the ongoing investigation into the 'Negreira Case'
The investigation of the UEFA by the payments of the FC Barcelona to the exvicepresidente of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA), José María Enríquez Negreira, have put in cloth of trial his participation in the next League of Champions. However, a new information desvelada by the newspaper 'Sportive World' ensures that the Barcelona will have the permission to contest the maximum contest to level of clubs of the European continent.
And it is that the Committee that commissions to award the respective licences does not have reason any for desestimar the participation of the culés in the Champions 2023/24, by what will give him his accreditation before the next 15 May. This is the first step that have to fulfil all the clubs classified to be in the bass drums although it neither is an absolute guarantee to be in the competition.
The UEFA will not risk without proofs
The UEFA understands that to day of today does not exist irrefutable evidence that the Barça committed some crime by purchase of referees or that in some point tried to do it. In fact, from the Real Spanish Federation of Football cleared that Negreira did not earn of the CTA and that belong to this community did not prevent him have a company in parallel that it worked directly with some club of LaLiga. It is not any crime in himself.
The charge of the excolegiado was not of influence in the referee's decisions and the UEFA does not go to take a controversial decision against the Barcelona if it does not exist a clear pattern of corruption. This yes, the licence that will concede the Committee to the Catalans is only the first phase of all the process, is not definite and is possible that more advance can go in in action other organisms that desestimen his participation.
The Barça trusts his innocence
A hypothetical exit of the culés of the Champions only would occur in case that it prosper the cause juridical penal of the investigation in course and would be the Disciplinary Committee the one who would act once conceded the licence of the UEFA. For the moment, the Barcelona is calm with the knowledge that they will have the provisional approval of the maximum organism of the balompié European and have the certainty that they will go out airosos of all the investigations and causes in his against.
