Barcelona are set to be granted a reprieve from the threat of a Champions League ban for next season following a meeting between club president Joan Laporta and UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin in Slovenia.
The meeting was arranged to discuss an ongoing investigation into the Negreira scandal after UEFA opened a case separate from the legal proceedings in Spain - Barcelona have been charged with corruption by prosecutors.
UEFA had been expected to impose sanctions on Barcelona if they were found guilty of attempting to influence games either by way of influencing match officials or determining their appointments. The most severe penalty speculated was a ban from the Champions League.
