✅ OFFICIAL: FC Barcelona responds to the statement from Real Madrid. UEFA has not initiated any new disciplinary proceedings against FC Barcelona. The proceedings began in 2023 with the appointment of two investigators, who have since taken actions they deemed necessary. The club has always complied with all their requests. These proceedings have not been resumed because they were never closed. UEFA's statement confirms the receipt of documentation sent by Real Madrid and its assessment by investigators as part of the ongoing investigation. The statement explicitly refers twice to the ongoing investigation and review. Therefore, it does not announce the initiation, resumption, or reactivation of any case, nor does it contain any statements regarding the substance or value of the submitted documentation. It is up to the investigators to decide what actions they consider appropriate in relation to this documentation. To date, they have not approached FC Barcelona with any new requests nor have they relayed Real Madrid's complaint to the Club. If they do, the Club will respond accordingly, as it has done so far. According to the applicable regulations, this act is subject to the resolution of the criminal proceedings ongoing in Spain and will remain there. Since the beginning of the investigation, FC Barcelona has been obtaining UEFA licenses without objection and has participated in UEFA competitions. [@FCBarcelona] (translated)
