Uefa investigating alleged payments to referees’ chief‘A future decision on admission/exclusion is reserved’
Barcelona have been provisionally admitted to the Champions League for the coming season amid a Uefa investigation into allegations the Spanish club made payments to a referees’ chief.
European football’s governing body announced in March that it was opening an investigation after it was reported Barcelona had paid €7m (just under £6m) to companies owned by José María Enríquez Negreira, the former vice-president of Spain’s referees committee, between 2001 and 2018.
