THE BARÇA, IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE
Tebas asks Barça to stop "victimism" and explain the 'Negreira case'
During the 'Marca Sport Weekend 2023', the president of LaLiga Javier Tebas has spoken about FC Barcelona, his involvement in the 'Negreira case' and the possible return of Leo Messi to the Camp Nou
The FC Barcelona occupies the leadership in the Spanish football in the middle of the 'case Negreira', that investigates the payment of more than seven million euros of the Barcelona entity to the exvicepresidente of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA) during almost two decades. The Fiscalía presented a complaint and, now, the UEFA also is working to know the background of the payments.
In the 'MARK Sports Weekend', Javier Thebes, president of LaLiga, has spoken in this regard and left several 'sticks' to the entity blaugrana and his president, the one who in his opinion would have to resign of his charge in the RFEF. It has insisted, also, in that the Barça has to leave to present as 'victim' in this case and that they have to begin to give explanations.
The maximum mandator of the patronal has begun doing reference to that it is the gravest case in the history of the sport in Spain: "it removes Me the dream because it is the gravest subject reputacional and of integrity of the competition that has happened us in the history of the football. I insist, it is the gravest subject of integrity that has happened in the Spanish football. I do not sleep well with this subject", explained.
Thebes urges to the Barça to give explanations
On the investigation of the UEFA against the Barça and the position of the club, insisted in that they have to give a conclusive explanation: "they Transmit tranquility, but that transmit them to all, to his fans... We need explanations. I think that they would have to be concerned. There is qque have vision of what happened the first day. To the hour and average to give the news the Barcelona took out a note saying that they did it all. From here, there are not explanations. Of tranquility with what there is, would not have to be calm".
On the same line, it has insisted in that everything will depend in what it say Joan Laporta, his homologous in the picture azulgana, the one who up to now has not pronounced to describe the background of the relation of the culés with Negreira: "it results Me complicated that so much time without giving an explanation can follow chairing. We will see which raisin when it give explanations. It is a very grave subject. It is necessary to differentiate two questions. A thing is that they have bought referees, that there are not proofs and think that no, and another is to pay to influence in decisions... This payment to influence is a very grave behaviour of the sportive field and think that penal".
The costarricense also understands that it is a problem that the case have prescribed, because "reputacionalmente had taken measures as in the 'case Osasuna' and does some months have finish in the prison those that chaired, or the club of my city by a case of bets...", insisting in that it is necessary to act with celerity because "it never had appeared with so much clarity a payment to a vice-president of the CTA. It would like me that no h ubiese prescritop because we could have taken other measures".
Intervention of the UEFA and FIFA in the 'case Negreira'
Thebes has been questioned in case it has spoken with the representatives of the UEFA, standing out that "there are some norms and this is not mamoneo. It will be sufficient with what have not to inscribe to the Barcelona the next season in the Champions? I do not know it, this depends on they", whereas it understands that sooner or later the FIFA will take part.
"It is very difficult to remove points. It has to be a national organ. But I am sure that FIFA goes to take part"
"This would be a course of Sportive Right. FIFA Already has sanctioned with removing points to Spanish teams, as to the Saragossa, but as it is not collected in the Royal decree of Sportive Discipline of Spain can not put this sanction. It is very difficult to remove points. It has to be a national organ. But I am sure that FIFA goes to take part", said in this regard.
Thebes pronounces on the return of Messi
At the same time that is 'alive' the crisis by the 'case Negreira', the Barça is working to concretise the traspaso of Lionel Messi, the one who has not renewed with the Paris Saint-Germain and whose future is in the air. The optimism has grown for the Barcelona, especially after the statements of Joan Laporta recently, but will not be so simple to effects of the 'fair play' financial, as it has confessed Javier Thebes.
On this, said that "with the economic situation of the Barcelona, Messi, if it does not go down the wage, could not. And in the PSG, neither. The PSG is a machine to put money of the gas and to do cheats with the sponsorships, have said it to him to To the-Khelaïfi many times".
