FC Barcelona and other European clubs such as Manchester United, were fined by UEFA for accounting irregularities and violation of the Financial Fair Play (FFP) during the 2022/2023 season, the European football body announced this Friday.
Barcelona, current champion of the Spanish League, was sanctioned with 500,000 euros for “erroneously declaring in the financial year 2022, benefits from the disposal of intangible assets (other than player transfers) that are not a relevant income according to the regulations ” .
United, meanwhile, was fined 300,000 euros ($335,000) for failing to meet the financial balance requirement.
The FFP regulations, introduced in 2010, oblige clubs not to have losses of more than 30 million euros in a period of three years.
Last year was the last in which these regulations were in force by UEFA, before the regulations were softened for the next three seasons.
Other clubs such as Inter Milan, AC Milan, Paris Saint-Germain, Monaco, Roma and Marseille escaped sanction following meeting their respective objectives set jointly with UEFA.
The Belgian Royal Antwerp and the Turkish Trabzonspor received the highest fines, of up to two million euros each, of which 300,000 are fixed, and the rest depending on the fulfillment of financial objectives.
