According to the latest report from COPE journalist Víctor Navarro, Barcelona is demanding that Florentino retract statements he made about Barcelona and the Negreira case during his Real Madrid presidential campaign. A mediation hearing is scheduled for November 25.

It was reported that in May of this year, when Florentino was campaigning to be re-elected as Real Madrid president, he stated, "We could have won 14 league titles because the others were stolen," referring to the Negreira case as a typical example of "20 years of systematic corruption."

Florentino suggested that despite ongoing investigations, "the referees are still the same group of people," expressing his distrust of the current refereeing system. He also claimed that the club had documented instances of unfair refereeing decisions they experienced last season.

Barcelona's interim president at the time, Rafa Yuste, responded to Florentino's statements and announced legal action against him: "The problem is he cannot accept what we have done, and our legal department has prepared legal action that we will take against Real Madrid and its president."

"They are using the most despicable tactics to attack us. We will fight them in court. Nothing can tarnish the name of Barcelona, nothing can tarnish this badge, and nothing can harm you all. Therefore, be assured that we will hold them accountable, because we are on the right side."

The mediation hearing between Barcelona and Florentino will take place at 09:40 local time on November 25 in Courtrooms 1 and 2 of the Madrid Court. This follows the defamation lawsuit filed by President Yuste after Florentino held a press conference and made his statements.

Barcelona is demanding that Florentino retract his statements and name the referees he claims received bribes and whom he referred to as "Negreira's men." If he fails to attend the mediation hearing, or attends but fails to resolve the matter, Barcelona will file a criminal complaint, and he will be compelled to testify in court.
