The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has officially informed Barcelona that it has opened disciplinary proceedings following a complaint filed by Atlético Madrid regarding striker Julián Álvarez.
Atlético Madrid alleges that Barcelona made unauthorized contact with Álvarez while he was still under contract, claiming that this violates FIFA regulations that protect players with valid contracts and prohibit unauthorized negotiations.
Following the complaint, the RFEF has formally launched a disciplinary investigation and appointed a special investigator to oversee the case. Barcelona has already received official notification of the proceedings and will now be given the opportunity to present its defense before any decision is made.
The case has attracted significant attention across Spanish football, with fans eagerly awaiting the outcome of the investigation and whether Barcelona will ultimately be found guilty of any wrongdoing.
