The Spanish Football Federation has opened disciplinary proceedings against FC Barcelona following a formal complaint filed by Atlético de Madrid. The investigation concerns allegations that Barcelona engaged in unauthorized negotiations with Julián Álvarez while the forward was still under contract with his current club.
The complaint centers on the regulations governing player transfers and the prohibition against clubs approaching players who are legally bound to another team. By initiating this disciplinary process, the Federation will now examine whether Barcelona’s actions violated these established protocols. The outcome of the investigation will determine if the club faces any formal sanctions regarding its conduct in the matter.
