[DJBusinesscake]

An Italian Newspaper are reporting that City are under investigation due to possibly illegally signing a player under the age of 18. If found guilty a transfer ban is likely...

FFS constant bad news when we seem to turn a corner, hope theres nothing in this.

Man City's response to 'threat' of Barcelona-style transfer ban over Myles Beerman deal

FIFA are looking into Maltese starlet Myles Beerman's move from Floriana to Manchester City

Manchester City do not fear a Barcelona-style transfer ban - despite FIFA investigating the transfer of Maltese starlet Myles Beerman.

The 17-year-old’s move from Floriana to the Etihad is being reviewed by football’s world governing body, with claims that it could breach rules concerning the transfer of underage players.

But City sources are adamant the deal was completely above board and that Beerman was not registered before reaching the eligible age limit.

Article 19 of FIFA regulations states: “International transfers of players are only permitted if the player is over the age of 18.”

Beerman is still only 17 and has been at City since 2014.

There are exceptions for players between the age of 16-18 if the move takes place within the EU and further stipulations are met.

Barcelona received a transfer embargo in 2014 after being found guilty of signing minors.

They were banned from making any signings for two whole windows.

Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are facing similar sanctions, which are currently under appeal.

FIFA have reportedly asked Floriana and the Maltese Football Federation for documentation relating to Beerman’s time at the club.

In response City sources claim such checks are standard procedure.

Pep will make them turn up again.

Seeing as Malta are an EU country the quoting of the under 18 rule is a bit disingenuous.

 

[mancity dan]

No chance this will happen.

 

[Rolee]

Oh well Good time to bring the kids through.

Haven't read the rest of the thread but this was my initial thought, may be a good thing as the club needs a kick up the arse in this aspect.

I can see Mr Gill urging UEFA to fuck us over and give pep as much advantage as a one legged man in an Arse kicking contest next season...
