The long-standing rivalry between the Spanish giants has escalated into a full-scale legal war.
Details: According to AS, Real Madrid's management has officially sent UEFA a comprehensive package of arbitration documents and a detailed dossier related to the explosive 'Negreira case.' The 'Royal' club has taken an uncompromising stance, demanding that UEFA impose the harshest sanctions in football history on the Catalan side, including the complete annulment of their past sporting achievements.
In its official appeal to UEFA, Madrid's Real insists on two radical measures that could devastate the Catalan club. The 'Blancos' executives demand Barcelona's complete exclusion from all European club competitions for several years, as well as the revocation of all titles won by the 'Blaugrana' in recent seasons.
Madrid argues that the trophies secured during Barcelona's alleged association with former referees' committee vice president José María Enríquez Negreira were obtained dishonestly.
