Real Madrid president Florentino P\u00e9rez has escalated his criticism of the Negreira Case, claiming Real Madrid have been directly \u201crobbed\u201d of points in La Liga due to refereeing decisions favoring Barcelona.<\/p>\n
In a fiery new statement, P\u00e9rez declared: \u201cWe were ROBBED. This season they\u2019ve taken 18 points from us in La Liga.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n He continued by pointing fingers at those he believes are responsible: \u201cThe \u2018Intellectuals of the regime\u2019 are the ones doing us harm.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n The Real Madrid president once again linked Barcelona\u2019s long-running Negreira scandal to on-field results, suggesting that refereeing bias has cost his club a significant number of points this season. The strong term \u201crobbed\u201d reflects growing frustration within the club over perceived injustices in Spanish football.<\/p>\n P\u00e9rez\u2019s latest comments reinforce his aggressive campaign against what he views as corruption, following his previous statements labeling the Negreira Case as \u201cthe biggest scandal in football history\u201d and announcing plans to submit a major dossier to UEFA.<\/p>\n The Negreira Case centers on Barcelona\u2019s payments totaling millions of euros over nearly two decades to companies owned by former referees\u2019 committee vice-president Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Enr\u00edquez Negreira. P\u00e9rez has repeatedly argued that these payments created an unfair advantage for Barcelona.<\/p>\n This latest outburst comes during a difficult 2025\/26 season for Real Madrid, where results have not met the club\u2019s usual high standards. P\u00e9rez, however, continues to fight on multiple fronts \u2014 from internal club matters to what he sees as external threats to fairness in Spanish football.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Real Madrid president Florentino P\u00e9rez has escalated his criticism of the Negreira Case, claiming Real Madrid have been directly \u201crobbed\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":217,"featured_media":51858,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,4651],"tags":[2327],"class_list":["post-51857","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","category-la-liga","tag-florentino-perez"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51857","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/217"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51857"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51857\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":51859,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51857\/revisions\/51859"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51858"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51857"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51857"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51857"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}P\u00e9rez Claims Systematic Harm to Real Madrid<\/h3>\n
