Barcelona Summon Florentino Pérez Over Negreira Case Remarks
Barcelona have summoned Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez to a Madrid court for a compulsory conciliation hearing on November 25, 2026. The hearing follows remarks Pérez made about the Negreira case and Barcelona's record in Spanish football. Pérez described Barcelona's payments to former refereeing official José María Enríquez Negreira as a major scandal. He also claimed that several league titles had been unfairly taken from Real Madrid. Barcelona say the comments are false and damaging to the club's reputation. If Pérez does not attend the hearing or withdraw the remarks, Barcelona could file a criminal defamation complaint.
