UEFA has opened a file against the Navarreans after the Supreme Court ruling upholding the manipulation of the 2013-2014 season
UEFA has opened an investigation into Osasuna that could lead to their exclusion from European competitions. Therefore, the Navarrese team could see their participation in the next edition of the Conference League in jeopardy, which they qualified for after finishing the League in seventh place.
The decision would leave the rojillos out of European competitions due to the Supreme Court ruling that the club was involved in fixing two matches in the 2013-14 season.
The board that led the club in those years is accused of embezzlement, document forgery, sports corruption and accounting crime. In any case, the Navarrese team does not know that this process has been opened. They assure that they have not received any notification.
Athletically benefited
The Basque team finished the League in eighth place. If the investigation ends with a sanction, which would be under investigation, those of San Mamés would occupy Osasuna’s European Square.
At the moment, the offices of the Biscayan club are waiting, but the fact is that when registering for the competition, as stated in the UEFA articles, Osasuna must provide documentation to show that there are no current affairs due to rigging and other violations . Now the leaders of the entity organizing the match have to analyze everything and if a sanction comes, the rojiblancos can achieve something in the offices that they have not achieved on the field.
