Barcelona president Joan Laporta is considering cancelling this weekend's pre-match lunch with his Real Madrid counterpart, Florentino Prez.
TV3 says Laporta is weighing up the move as a result of Real Madrid's statement on the investigation into payments Bara made to ex-referees' chief Jos Mara Enrquez Negreira.
Spanish prosecutors have filed corruption charges agains Bara, and former club presidents Sandro Rosell and Josep Maria Bartomeu, over 7m in payments to Negreira, the former vice-president of Spain's referees' committee.
On Sunday, Madrid said they would support the legal action against Bara, commenting: The club has agreed that, in defence of its legitimate rights, it will appear at the trial when the judge opens it up to the affected parties."
In the second of three Clsicos in a month, leaders Bara host Madrid in LaLiga on Sunday with a nine-point advantage over Carlo Ancelotti's second-placed side.
