One of the hottest topics of this season in international competitions has been the acceptance or not of Barcelona by UEFA due to the involvement of the Catalans in the scandal of payments to the leaders of the Committee of Judges for many years. The Catalans are still under investigation at home over systematic payments they made to referee managers, as it is thought to have affected their results on the pitch.
An obvious violation of rules in favor of the Catalans that ended up in UEFA's magnifying glass, which opened an investigation for several months, taking into consideration all the documentation of the case. Today, the UEFA Appeals Committee has decided to temporarily accept Barcelona's application to participate in international competitions for the 2023-2024 edition, pending the latest developments from the sports justice in Spain on this issue.
" Barcelona is provisionally accepted to participate in the competitions. The organization reserves the right to a subsequent decision on the admission or exclusion from UEFA club competitions. Barcelona is obliged to inform about the continuation of the investigation in an active manner and facilitate the provision of any type of documentation or information that is requested ", it is written in the UEFA decision about this issue.
