BARCELONA, Spain (AP) – Barcelona has ended its contract with a company that made negative comments on social media about people within the club.
Barcelona president Josep Bartomeu said Tuesday the decision was made after the club found out that one of its service providers used an account to make ''inadequate'' comments about people in the club. He did not name the company nor give any detail about the comments.
Bartomeu reiterated the club's denial of accusations it hired a company to make negative comments about its own players and opponents on social media in order to boost the image of senior club officials.
