"The 'Negreira case' is the most serious case in football today. We know that more than 8 million euros were paid for referee technical reports. And to top it off, the coaches never even received them. Who can believe that these reports, which the coaches didn't even know existed, were paid for? It highlights the need for radical change. It's possible that some clubs have been relegated as a result of the Negreira case. Our football has been damaged, and justice must be served."
"The event will be presided over by Laporta, who already has an eye on the elections scheduled for next year. There is significant expectation surrounding the speech that the Barça president will deliver, not only because of the impending elections, but also the recent attacks from Real Madrid, who have turned the Negreira case into their preferred weapon against the Blaugrana."
Florentino Pérez accused Barcelona, La Liga, and the Spanish Football Federation of passivity and alleged corruption related to the Negreira case, stating more than €8 million was paid for referee technical reports that coaches never received. He suggested the payments may have influenced relegations, damaged Spanish football, and demanded justice and radical change. Barcelona president Joan Laporta is expected to respond at the club’s Christmas dinner on 18 December at Palau Blaugrana, where all professional squads will attend. Laporta presides over the event while preparing for next year’s elections; his past speeches have influenced club unity and responses to criticism.
