We should not try to get special favors from FIFA/UEFA. If this was a smaller team, would such a loophole even be entertained? We have a ban to uphold, we should be good role models and honor the ban, not find ways around it to suit our short-term needs.
The ban is over. There's nothing to uphold. This isn't a special favor either, it's in rfef rules, and it has been done several times in the past. If this happened last year, the ban would be in course, but now it's over.
What do you mean it's over Flavia? I know that Arda Turan and Alex Vida are not allowed to play until january. I am aware that is very bad for Barcelona and for me as well seeing club in this uncomfortable position, but life goes on! If you known something further about the ban please tell me.

Ok, if Barca dinies from Fifa. We should send this cases in CAS, I hop that they would make a right decisionThey are not allowed to play until January because they can't be registered. The ban was for that, registering new players. But it has been fullfiled. Barça didn't register new players for 2 windows.
As Konan said above, there is a rfef rule that allows clubs to sign players outside of the windows, when they lose another player for the season. Legally there's nothing to stop Barça from registering Arda, but I'm sure Fifa won't allow it.

It's not a "loophole" if the ban is over and effectively we have the rights of any other Spanish club regarding registering players. The RFEFs ruling says we can register Arda. Such a transparent rule isn't a loophole. Our ban is over. We are no longer upholding any ban. It's out of the picture. The fact the SPANISH legal department said our ban was over pretty much says it all really.
