While Barça revives financially during this summer transfer window, with the signing of prestigious players like Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha or Jules Koundé, a corruption case could darken the Catalan horizon.
In a book by the British journalist, Simon Kuper, quoted by The Athleticthere are reports of an attempt by a Barcelona manager to bribe a UEFA official, in order to investigate Paris-Saint-Germain and Manchester City regarding financial fair play ( FPF).
“Is there anyone in your department we could pay?” This Barça official would have said during a meal in February 2020. If the facts are proven, there is no doubt that a scandal will break out and that an investigation may be opened against Barça.
