The Spanish Football Federation has released a statement to officially announce that it is also a person in ‘Negreira’ case, after receiving the Prosecutor’s complaint for processing by the justice system. This is the full statement of Federation:
“The Real Spanish soccer federation appeared in the procedure, once admitted for processing by the Court of Instruction number 1 of Barcelona the complaint of the Prosecutor’s Office for the payments of FC Barcelona to the former vice president of the Technical Committee of Referees, Jose Maria Enriquez Negreira.
In addition, having analyzed the situation, the RFEF has been sent to the Integrity Director of UEFA the report of the Department of Integrity of the Federation and all documentation supporting the writing.
The RFEF has been cooperating from the beginning with the competent authorities to make the task of investigating these facts as easy as possible before the current management team of RFEF. UEFA has also been informed of the Royal Spanish Football Federation’s court appearance. At the same time, the aforementioned report prepared by the Integrity Department was transferred to the CSD, with a copy to FC Barcelona and the CTA.
It is worth repeating the unquestionable promise of RFEF in this matter, the initiation of an internal investigation as soon as the case is known. The Federation, which is ready to cooperate at all times, wants to see it through to the end and asks, in turn, for the necessary and advisable silence that will help to reduce the climate of tension created towards collective arbitration. It is not useful for football. The application of justice requires time and prove those facts that can be considered illegal.
To finish, the RFEF We would like to thank the refereeing group union around the CTA, which brought together all the referees who are currently doing their work in professional football, but has received the enormous support of the well-known legends of Spanish refereeing who in the past They -contribute to the growth of our football. To all of them, THANK YOU!”
