Bolton 'become the SECOND club to demand compensation from Barcelona' for Marcos Alonso's free move to the Nou Camp... after fourth tier side Union Adarve reported the Spanish giants to FIFA for fraud

Bolton have become the second club to demand compensation from Barcelona over the transfer of Marcos Alonso last summer, according to reports in Spain.

Fourth-tier Spanish outfit Union Adarve accused Barcelona of fraud and filed a complaint to FIFA last month after allegedly learning that they deserved compensation from the LaLiga giants following Alonso's free transfer at the start of the season.

The left-back arrived at the Nou Camp last September shortly after Chelsea terminated his contract, reportedly taking a sizeable pay cut in order to sign for Barcelona amid their ongoing financial difficulties.
