Barcelona President, Josep Maria Bartomeu, has said that the club could leave the La Liga, should the region gain independence from Spain.
Bartomeu said the club would have to discuss the possibility of leaving the Spanish topflight if Catalonia gained independence from Spain.
A Catalan independence referendum, which has been deemed illegal, was marred by violence on Sunday.
He said, “This situation does not exist so far.”
“But with regards to things that can happen in the future, it is something that the board of directors would discuss. It would be something to analyse calmly.
“If we discuss the subject intensely then obviously we will find the best solution. But if this [independence] happens, the board of directors will see.”
Catalonia’s sport minister, Gerard Figueras, had earlier suggested that Barca could play in the Premier League if the region secedes from Spain.
