UEFA acknowledge receipt of Real Madrid’s 500‑page ‘Negreira case’ dossier

UEFA have officially confirmed that they have received Real Madrid’s extensive documentation regarding Barcelona’s alleged involvement in the ‘Negreira case’. During the recent election campaign, club president Florentino Pérez promised to deliver a 500‑page dossier immediately after securing re‑election, outlining what Madrid claim is evidence of preferential refereeing towards Barcelona. UEFA stated that the files have now been handed over and incorporated into their ongoing inquiry.

According to the organisation, Ethics and Disciplinary Inspectors have already begun evaluating the new material as part of their broader review into payments made to José María Enríquez Negreira, former vice‑president of Spain’s refereeing committee. The governing body reiterated that its investigation remains active.

The case, which has dominated Spanish football discourse for months, continues to unfold across multiple legal and sporting channels. UEFA’s confirmation marks a significant procedural step as scrutiny over Barcelona’s conduct persists at continental level.
