However, Negreira and the Catalans claim that the club used consulting services.
It is known that Barcelona received technical reports in video format on young players from other Spanish clubs, verbal advice on the working methods of professional referees and recommendations on how to communicate with them in different situations.
The club is currently not accused of anything, but if the investigation proves corruption, Barcelona faces punishment: deduction of points, a fine or expulsion from La Liga.
