Prosecutor’s Office examines the actions of the previous board of the Spanish football giant Barcelona. Also the former presidency of Barcelona Josep Maria Bartomeun activities are being investigated.
The exact reason for the investigation has not been made public, but Barcelona’s current management complained about the actions of the previous management on Wednesday. According to an insider source in the news agency AFP, the prosecutor’s office is investigating possible financial crimes and then deciding whether to refer the matter to the police.
The complaint, made by Barcelona’s current management, is based on a report analyzing the club’s finances and possible abuses during Bartomeu’s presidency.
In the internal audit presented in October, the club’s CEO Ferran Reverter said Barça was on the verge of bankruptcy when the current president Joan Laporta joined the club leadership in March last year. Barcelona’s total debt at that time was € 1.35 billion.
