Real Madrid want Barcelona to be stripped of titles as they seek additional documents in Negreira investigation

Real Madrid want Barcelona to be stripped of titles as they seek additional documents in Negreira investigation The legal proceedings surrounding the Negreira case have entered another phase after Real Madrid submitted a new request to the court overseeing the investigation, seeking additional documentation from FC Barcelona. According to AS , the Madrid-based club has asked the judge to order Barcelona to provide details of its compliance system covering the period between 2010 and 2018.  Simply put, Real Madrid are seeking to examine the internal mechanisms that were in place during those years. In fact, the outlet furthers that the Florentino Perez-led side has urged UEFA to consider stripping Barcelona of titles won during the period covered by the investigation.  Despite these developments, it is important to understand that it does not represent a new ruling or a new finding against Barcelona, with the investigation still ongoing and no final verdict having been delivered. Real Madrid pursue legal and sporting avenues Real Madrid have maintained an active role throughout the investigation and appear determined to remain involved until the case reaches its conclusion. The report states that the club’s legal representatives have requested that Spain’s Civil Guard provide additional documents, including invoices, payment authorisations, internal procedures and audit records linked to Tresep, Radamanto and Best Norton, arguing that some of the requested material has yet to be incorporated into the case file. Furthermore, Real Madrid are also said to have contacted UEFA , asking the governing body to examine the matter from a sporting perspective. For now, though, these requests remain part of an ongoing legal process rather than a judicial conclusion.  This means any decisions regarding the admissibility of evidence or potential sporting consequences will ultimately rest with the relevant authorities. Barcelona’s position remains unchanged Barcelona have consistently denied any sporting wrongdoing since the Negreira case first emerged, maintaining that payments made to companies linked to the former vice-president of Spain’s Technical Committee of Referees were for consultancy and refereeing reports rather than to influence match officials. While new reports around the case continue to surface every month, Barcelona’s day-to-day focus remains on preparations for the new season under Hansi Flick.  The first-team squad has already returned to training, with pre-season now taking priority on the sporting side as the club prepares for another demanding campaign.
