Its honorary president appeared particularly caustic Bayern Munich, Karl Heinz Rummenigge when asked about her involvement Barcelona in Negreira case.
The old glory of the Bavarians, granted a long interview to the Italian Corriere Dello Sportduring which he did not hesitate to take a position on the scandal that has arisen in Spain and shows the Barcelona to have offered a company of the former president of the referees committee, Enriquez Negreira, an amount of 1.4 million euros.
As he characteristically pointed out, the looming participation of the Catalans did not cause him any impression while he emphasized that such a serious issue can affect not only Spanish but also international football. In detail what he argued:
“I don’t know if you would believe me if I told you that when I read the news, I burst out laughing. Really Barcelona’s involvement doesn’t surprise me at all, every time we play in Spain, it’s a strange and special situation. All this is unacceptable and affects in general and not only the national championships. Matters involving arbitration must be treated seriously and with respect.”
