Florentino Perez to face Barcelona in Madrid conciliation hearing
A conciliation hearing in Madrid on 25 November at 9:40 will bring Real Madrid president Florentino Perez and Barcelona into a formal legal meeting after Barcelona filed over statements Perez made on 12 May about the Negreira case. Barcelona demands that Perez retract remarks it deems defamatory and has said it will pursue a criminal lawsuit under Article 205 of the Spanish Penal Code if he does not retract or fails to attend. Perez had called alleged corruption “systematic” and the “biggest scandal in history,” and Barcelona vice-president Rafa Yuste publicly rejected those comments.
Conciliation hearing set for 25 November could trigger a criminal lawsuit.
