Summarised by MatchPal
Spanish FA fines Barcelona €602 for unauthorized contact with Atlético Madrid's Julián Álvarez during summer transfer window.
Barcelona has been fined €602 by the Spanish Football Federation for breaching regulations during the summer transfer window. Atlético Madrid had accused the club of holding unauthorized negotiations with striker Julián Álvarez, who remained at Atlético. The fine was so minimal that Barcelona itself described it as "laughably small", highlighting the disparity between the alleged violation and the penalty imposed.
