Barcelona hit with UEFA ban following ‘racist behaviour’ by fans
Barcelona will be banned from selling tickets to their next Champions League game due to racist behaviour from fans during their game against Monaco.
Barcelona have been fined €10,000 and prevented from selling tickets to away fans for their next away Champions League game against Serbian side Crvena zvezda in November. A portion of Barcelona’s fans unveiled a banner in the loss to Monaco last week reading ‘Flick heil’, which has Nazi connotations.
The punishment was issued by UEFA due to Barcelona already having a suspended ban for the racist behaviour of supporters during the Champions League tie against Paris Saint-Germain in April. The club were charged with racist behaviour, causing damage and letting off fireworks inside the Parc des Princes, prompting €32,000 of fines and a suspended ban on selling away tickets.
