LaLiga: Barcelona to shine light on financial meltdown under former president Josep Bartomeu

Firstpost  

Barcelona’s report was initiated after the club’s general director, Ferran Reverter, announced the results of an internal audit in October. Barcelona president Joan Laporta will present the results of a club investigation into financial mismanagement under the previous board on Tuesday, with former president Josep Maria Bartomeu expected to be in the firing line. The findings of the ‘forensic report’ prompted the prosecutor’s office in Barcelona to launch an investigation on Friday into “economic crimes”, a source told AFP, after the club filed a complaint last week. Reverter said the club was “technically bankrupt” when Laporta took over as president in March 2021 and that Bartomeu’s regime had been “disastrous”. Bartomeu also oversaw numerous political controversies, including the ‘Barcagate’ scandal, which saw a company allegedly hired to smear opponents of the board on social media, with figures like Messi, Gerard Pique and current coach Xavi Hernandez among those targeted.
