Barça: Joan Laporta deeply touched by the death of Carles Miñarro

FC Barcelona is not finished with the Negreira affair. The Catalan club which paid money to José María Enríquez Negreira between 2001 and 2018 in his role as Vice-President of the Technical Commission of Referees for Arbitration Councils is under investigation as mentioned Onda Cero.

Thus, the judge summoned the Catalan club to appear as a suspect on January 27 and the Catalan club will be represented by Elena Fort, its vice-president, while the former president of the club Joan Gaspart will be a witness. Initially charged, President Joan Laporta, who had a first mandate between 2003 and 2010, was acquitted for statute of limitations.
