Barcelona highlights 2023 start of UEFA Negreira process

Barcelona has clarified its procedural standing with UEFA regarding the ongoing Negreira case following renewed media scrutiny. According to reporting by MARCA on October 1, the Catalan club rejected suggestions that a fresh disciplinary file had been opened, maintaining that the current matter is part of an ongoing process that originally began in 2023.

The club's narrowly focused clarification addressed the timing of the proceedings rather than the eventual outcome or whether the investigation has concluded. Barcelona did not provide details on potential upcoming steps by UEFA or an expected resolution timeline, focusing solely on denying that a new investigation was recently initiated.
