Barcelona are still facing charges over bribery of referees in the Jose Negreira scandal.

Real Madrid have taken advantage of the scandal to point an accusing finger at Barcelona, and accuse the Blaugrana of being corrupt, Joan Laporta says.

Barcelona president Joan Laporta is frustrated at Real Madrid’s antics, and has labelled them as shameful.

According to Laporta, it’s Real who are even trying to influence referees.

“I am still angry and indignant because what Real Madrid Television does is a shame,” Laporta said.

“I believe that the football regulators should intervene here because that is influencing, trying to influence the referees every week, every now and then.

“Imagine if we were like this all day, they would have already criminalized and sanctioned us. I think that of course, they deserve an exemplary sanction. I do not agree at all with how Real Madrid TV is acting on this issue because it can also adulterate the competition.

“Today the relationship with Real Madrid is not good. They’re appearing in El Caso Negreira when it’s them trying to influence referees through Real Madrid TV, which I’m angry about. It’s disgusting what they do.”
