▶ Separation no worry for FC Barcelona
FC Barcelona says it still supports Catalonia’s push to vote on secession from the rest of Spain despite warnings that independence would mean the club’s exclusion from the Spanish league. Barcelona says it “was one of the first institutions to declare it was in favour of the right to decide.” Catalonia’s regional government wants to hold a non- binding referendum on independence on Nov. 9. A Spanish court has suspended the vote to rule on its legality.
