Barcelona is at the center of the scandal again: UEFA may punish the club

Barcelona is at the center of the scandal again: UEFA may punish the club
Barcelona, ​​one of the most famous clubs in Europe, may once again face serious sanctions for non-compliance with financial regulations. The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) is closely examining the actions of the Catalans and it is said that serious penalties may be imposed in the near future. This was reported by the famous British publication The Times.

As it turned out, the Catalan team continues to fail to comply with the requirements of financial fair play. In order to expand its opportunities in the transfer market, the club incorrectly calculated the income from the sale of intangible assets and formed additional funds for the purchase of players. This situation was revealed during inspections conducted by UEFA and the organization issued a serious warning.

In the fall of 2024, the Catalan club was fined 500 thousand euros by UEFA for the same reason. The Barcelona management considered this decision unfair and appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), but their appeal was rejected.

However, it seems that the club's management has decided to continue its policy of non-compliance with the rules. UEFA and its Financial Control Committee are considering new cases, and this time the sanctions may be even more severe. If the club's violation of financial regulations is confirmed once again, it is highly likely that Barcelona will be given a penalty of several points in the 2025/26 Champions League season.

In addition, Barcelona may be deprived of the right to officially register new players. This will limit the club's activities in the transfer market and significantly reduce its opportunities to strengthen the squad.

According to experts, UEFA has been paying close attention to financial discipline in recent years, and serious sanctions are expected to be imposed on clubs that violate the rules. The Catalan club's management is advised to correctly assess this situation and take serious measures to prevent such situations in the future.

It is worth noting that Barcelona, ​​which has been experiencing significant financial difficulties in recent years, is undoubtedly affected by the frequent involvement of such scandals in the club's reputation. Fans and football experts are closely following the further development of the situation.
