Fez- Four months after FIFA suspended its sanction against F.C Barcelona for breaching rules on the registration of minors, the the World football’s governing body said in a statement on Wednesday that it rejected the appeal lodged by the Catalan club and confirmed the disciplinary decision it took against it regarding the protection of minors.
“The FIFA Appeal Committee has decided to reject the appeals lodged by Spanish club FC Barcelona and the Real Federación Española de Fútbol (RFEF) and to confirm in their entirety the decisions rendered by the FIFA Disciplinary Committee in the respective cases relating to the protection of minors,” FIFA said on its website.
In line with this decision, F.C. Barcelona will be deprived of making any national or international transfer for a two-year period, starting from the next transfer window, next January. In addition, it was ordered to pay a CHF 450,000 fine to FIFA.
