Barcelona Fined €32,000 for Fan Misconduct

Union of European Football Associations has handed FC Barcelona a €32,000 fine for the unruly behaviour of their fans during the first leg of their Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain in Paris, according to Marca.

Barcelona's transgressions included the lighting of flares (€2,000 fine), causing property damage (€5,000 fine), and racist behaviour by fans (€25,000 fine).

The club will also be required to contact PSG within 30 days to cover the cost of repairing damaged seats.

This is not a new issue for Barcelona, who have faced previous UEFA sanctions for similar fan behaviour.

Racist chants have been directed at opposing players in the past, including recent incidents involving Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior during their match with Napoli.

In addition to the fine, UEFA has imposed a suspended one-year sentence that would ban Barcelona from selling tickets to their fans for away games in European competitions.

This penalty will only take effect if the club commits another offence.
