Luis Enrique Martínez, Ernesto Valverde, and Joan Laporta testified on Friday as witnesses in the Negreira case. Both former Barcelona coaches stated—via video call—that they were unaware of the existence of the reports from the former vice-president of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA) and his son. They claimed that Valverde had received similar services while at Athletic Bilbao. Joan Laporta, however—who was acquitted in the case because the statute of limitations had expired for the acts committed during his first term (2003-2010)—admitted in court that they found these reports "by chance in some boxes at the back of a cupboard," as revealed by SER Catalunya. However, only some of the reports were found, because, according to the Barcelona president, part of the club's documentation is destroyed every five or six years.

Sandro Rosell only testified for 15 minutes before the judge, but it was enough time to leave the main character of the day in court. "With Messi and Piqué at Barça, we didn't have to pay Negreira," the former Barça president declared, according to Efe, at the courthouse. It was an intense morning at the City of Justice in Hospitalet de Llobregat, which also saw the presence of another former Barça president, Josep Maria Bartomeu, and Javier Enríquez Romero, the son of José María Enríquez Negreira, the former vice president of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA). Between father and son, Barça paid a total of 7.3 million euros between 2001 and 2018.
