Spanish FA, FC Barcelona sanctioned for international transfers of minors

And I think the court in Lausanne will give the final decision before the opening of the transfer window.

Don't think so. It took the court 5 months to look into Chelsea's appeal when it happened to them, and that was a less complicated case.

Two transfer window means the upcoming Summer window and the winter window. Even if everything goes against us we should be able to sign players next summer.

We are fucked for next season. Transfers were needed not wanted.

That would be good, because FIFA would hesitate to maintain this ban without a definitive decision (they would be liable for compensatory damages to FCB). And only TAS can make those decisions.

Even if we don't win the appeal we can always buy players until the final decision is made. That means we're gonna be spending a lot of money this upcoming transfer window. For the next two seasons!

So we can buy players while they're deciding whether or not to accept our appeal?

Good

We still have Bartra. He's been doing fine. We can get by with Pique, Masch, Bartra and a youngster like Bagnack.

Midfield and attack is fine. We'll get Rafinha back. And Roberto has shown he can play in the league.

Keeper is problem though.

 

[Hamzah]

Don't worry about ter Stegen and halilovic. They are fine.

But what will happen to lee and other youth players involved?

Precisely. That means other teams will have yet another leverage to bump the prices when they're negotiating with Barca.

During the appeal process, yes,

 

[Frejsgodes]

Don't worry about ter Stegen and halilovic. They are fine.

What do you mean by fine?

If Valdes stays we're good to go for the next season.

 

[hulinat]

I really hope Valdes stays for 1 more season. Would he leave Barca with this trouble?

 

[Ryu Hayabusa]

Interesting.

So no ter Stegen and no new CB?

I find it a little funny since a couple of days ago somebody here was joking that given the track-record of your board, the new CB signing would be Bartra and the new gk someone from the second team.

Maybe he already has a pre-contract signed with another team.
