Football Notes: Barcelona Court To Decide On Appeals By Barcelona Execs

Spain's national court has "left in the hands of the Barcelona court" the decision on whether Barcelona broke the law in the signing of Neymar. The Barcelona court will decide on the appeals presented by the club, President Josep Maria Bartomeu and former President Sandro Rosell (EFE, 5/25). ... Greece will "not be thrown out" of int'l football, "clearing the way for the national team to continue qualification for Euro 2016" and, for now at least, Olympiacos to take its place in next season's Champions League. The decision was confirmed in a letter jointly signed by FIFA General Secretary Jérôme Valcke and UEFA General Secretary Gianni Infantino that was "sent by fax to the Greek minister for sport." There had been a "strong risk of expulsion" from the int'l football community after the government took "emergency measures for the confrontation of violence in sports and other provisions" (INSIDE WORLD FOOTBALL, 5/25).
