A “poisoned” gift for Christmas

The Catalan Football Federation (FCF) faces a busy few weeks to close the year and inaugurate the next one. Added to the usual work is the “concern” generated by the request, by the Labor Inspectorate, to Girona clubs competing in Primera Catalana. A demand that had already been extended to other entities in the demarcation in lower categories and that has ended, for example, with sanctions worth more than 40,000 euros to AE Roses and UE Quart. The presentation of the federative contracts of the main coaches (of the men’s and women’s teams), as well as that of other members of the coaching staff (secondary and goalkeeper coaches), is required. The relevant documentation must also be provided if the hiring of these is for compensation and expenses. Even the paperwork that proves what amounts have been received in the event that contractual terminations have occurred. The threat is clear and blunt: failure to provide all that is requested will be considered an act of obstruction.
