Real Madrid is gearing up for its presidential elections, with the campaign period now in full swing. In a recent press conference, the club’s current president, Florentino Pérez, directed attention to the ongoing Negreira case, which he described as a significant blemish on the sport.
Pérez stated, “The Negreira case is the biggest stain in football history. How can a club pay millions of euros over 20 years to the vice-president of the refereeing committee and still avoid any punishment? Referees who worked with him for years are still officiating in La Liga. I will NOT stop until justice is restored,” underscoring the seriousness of the allegations surrounding the case.
