The former Barcelona president accused the financial fraud

She was directed to Josep Maria Bartomeo, former President of Barcelona Football Club, on charges of abusing the position of non -honest position during his six -year presidency.

Bartomeo, who headed the Catalan club between 2014 and 2020, is scheduled to appear to eliminate the background of his secret commissions without referring to the board of directors, especially in the deal of the Brazilian wing of Malcolm from the French club Bordeaux to Barcelona in 2018 for more than 40 million euros.

According to a judicial document, which was seen by “France Press”, the Public Prosecution accuses the former president of the Catalan club of “unbearable administration” and damaging the club by neglecting the duties of care and loyalty imposed by his position.

The Public Prosecution stated that it focuses in particular on a number of “unjustified” financial operations, which amount to several million euros.

In a statement sent to a number of media outlets, Bartomeo’s lawyers acknowledged that their client may have committed “errors”, but they condemned the four unprecedented claims that are currently targeting him, and without evidence that the former Barcelona president obtained a financial benefit from any of them.
