But presiding judge Judge Joaquin Aguirre sees the case differently, implicating former club presidents Josep Maria Bartomeu and Sandro Rosell as well as Negreira and his son in the conspiracy. <\/p>\n<p>            The charges against FC Barcelona could eventually result in the team\u2019s expulsion from the UEFA Champions League, where they experienced tremendous success during the period in question, winning the European Champion Clubs\u2019 Cup four times. Their 2023\/2024 Champions league season is already off to a strong start after a 5-0 win against Royal Antwerp. The \u201cCaso Negreira,\u201d as it\u2019s come to be known in Spain, will ultimately be decided in court by a jury of nine, but UEFA officials made it clear that they reserve the right to exercise their own authority in the matter, should they see fit to do so.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-254375\" class=\"content_block paragraph embed triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm?p=TFI7834680816&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"482\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">Raphael Helfand<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
