The silence of Madrid, and Florentino, on the Negreira case

Madrid did not do like Seville or Espanyol, who raised the banner of protest against Barça, whom they did not mention in any of their statements. Nor did the white team sign the document issued by LaLiga and its delegated commission in which they rejected and repudiated the Negreira case while announcing that “they are actively working to clarify any irregularities that may have occurred around it, whether of a sporting nature or of any other nature”. Madrid did not sign this text, nor did Barça.

Laporta-Florentino alliance against Thebes

Since he assumed the Barça presidency for the second time, Joan Laporta has built more than cordial relations with Florentino Perezboth united in the project of the European Super League, which collides head-on with the positions of UEFA and, of course, of javier thebesthe president of LaLiga.

This is precisely a common enemy for the two presidents of the most important clubs in Spanish football. Both Laporta (“the mask has been removed, he has a phobia of Barça, I am not going to give him the pleasure of resigning as president,” denounced the Barça manager) and Florentino are aligned in the same direction, as he does not stop remembering the own thebes last December coinciding with an assembly of the League that was held in Doha during the last World Cup.

Neither of the two clubs attended that appointment and they boycotted the call from Thebes. “Barça was signed up with their treasurer and their football director three days ago. They received the call from who we all know, from Florentino, and they are already forming. They have been lining up for days,” accused the president of LaLiga.

Madrid and Barça maintain that the future and economic survival depends on the implementation of the Super League. They are the only ones, together with Juventus, although the departure of Andrea Agnellione of the promoters together with Florentino and Laporta, weakens his position in the defense of the Super League. In addition, they are exploring similar lines of business, both Madrid, with the new Bernabéu, and Barça, when it builds the new Camp Nou, in the commercial exploitation of its stadiums.

For now, Madrid silently watches the development of the Negreira case. And he does not participate, therefore, in the actions that Thebes has undertaken, who has reversed his position in this case, even going so far as to demand Laporta’s resignation if he does not explain this case well.

The president of the football association indicated last Friday, and in a press conference that he offered in the sports city of Espanyol, that “after studying the issue& rdquor; he had decided not to file” a criminal complaint because we would hinder the investigation of the Prosecutor’s Office.

On Tuesday, however, and after the meeting of the delegated commission, Tebas sent “a letter to the Prosecutor’s Office” in addition to specifying that “most of the LaLiga clubs expressed their deep concern about this case, which they consider to be of the utmost seriousness, Therefore, the proposal for a joint communication received the unanimous support of all the LaLiga SmartBank clubs and all the LaLiga Santander clubs except for two”.

The “objections” of the two great

He did not mention those two clubs that “showed objections to this joint statement for different reasons”, although it was not necessary either because Madrid and Barça are now more allies than ever in common goals. That’s why, Florentine does not move anything Shut up, observe and watch how Barça investigates, according to Laporta, “rigorously& rdquor; the ‘Negreira case’.
