UEFA sanctions FC Barcelona

For a breach of the rules of financial fair play, Barça must pay a fine, we learned on Friday.

This will not prevent the leaders of FC Barcelona from sleeping peacefully. Recognized guilty of a breach of the rules of financial fair play, the Spanish champion club will have to pay some 500,000 euros to UEFA.

The European institution accuses the Catalan institution of having included the profits from the sale of intangible assets (excluding those from the sale of players) to balance their accounts, UEFA said on Friday.

Manchester United was also fined. The Premier League club will pay 300,000 euros for “ minor balance deficits » relating to the financial years between 2019 and 2022.
