The prosecution has implicated Barcelona SC in a money laundering investigation involving the Alvarez brothers.

During the appeal hearing for the preventive custody measure imposed on Aquiles Alvarez, Antonio Alvarez, Xavier Alvarez, César Blanco, and Fernando Peñaherrera, the representative from the Attorney General's Office provided details on how the Goleada case, which investigates alleged organized crime for money laundering and tax fraud, was supposedly structured.
