🚨 Official: Barcelona ask RFEF, La Liga and CTA to act over Florentino | OneFootball

FC Barcelona has issued a statement calling for action to be taken against Florentino Pérez.

Barça has formally requested that the RFEF, La Liga, and the CTA take action against Florentino Pérez over his statements made on May 12 and 13 mentioning the famous “Negreira Case.”

The club’s statement

"The president of FC Barcelona, Rafael Yuste y Abel, today sent a formal letter to the presidents of LaLiga, Javier Tebas; the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), Rafael Louzán; and the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA), Francisco Soto, regarding the statements made by the president of Real Madrid CF, Florentino Pérez, in various public appearances on May 12 and 13.

FC Barcelona considers that these remarks, in addition to being false, seriously undermine the honor and image of the First Division league competition, as well as the refereeing body as a whole, and damage the reputation and credibility of Spanish professional football.

The Club urges the co-organizers of the competition and the referees to defend the reputation of their institutions — just as the Club has recently done by filing a conciliation claim — and asks the recipient entities to urgently adopt, within the scope of their respective powers, the appropriate associative and legal measures against Mr. Pérez to defend the honor, integrity, and prestige of the institutions they represent and the competitions they organize."
