Didn't Chelsea get one of those and it was pretty swiftly removed?

 

with Chelsea, it was because of Kakuta but with Barcelona it involves 10 u18 players

With regard to the case in question, FC Barcelona has been found to be in breach of art. 19 of the Regulations in the case of ten minor players and to have committed several other concurrent infringements in the context of other players, including under Annexe 2 of the Regulations.

Either way, more pressure on the current Barcelona board after the Neymar mess.

 

Does 2 transfer windows mean 1 season or 2 season ?

 

Summer and winter me guess

 

They deserve this... Not that it will last though but they're the vultures of the league. I think they have signed like 10 Valencia youth players in like 3-4 years, Grimaldo is one of them and they were like 12 at the time. I can't imagine the rest of the teams.

 

It was for International transfers though. So we basically got hit due to signing players from Etoo`s foundation im guessing (the biggest influx of international transfers for minors has come from there if im not mistaken).

 

I'm sure this will be lifted somehow, like the Chelsea transfer ban

 

so they still can make domestic transfers?

 

Don't most clubs do this? Sign young players from all over the world and then their parents just happen to get a job in the same city at the exact same time?

 

I'm confused. According to Mourinho, Barcelona are always helped by UEFA/FIFA.

 

Chelsea had the same problem in 2009, Barca will appeal as well and probably win.

 

Under 18 transfers should be banned period. But most clubs are still doing it. Unless the parents move with them and the parents are going to another country for non football related reasons.

Which is something you could never really prove. They can just claim they had a reason while the real reason is the football career of the child.

 

Madrid fan aside, its funny that this is the club which loves to brag about their more than a club statement.

Will be lifted eventually ofcourse, these transfers were ultimately made due to loopholes in the rule

 

They must've pissed some of their old friends at FIFA. Maybe they forgot to give them a piece of the Neymar pie.

They will manage to fix it though, like friends always do.

 

Well someone important left the Barca board and forgot to mail in the payments.

 

I never understood that PC good-will clubs would get for focusing on youth.

Maybe that is sort of over now.

 

This is bullshit "convenient" literal interpretation and enforcement of the rules.
This crap is done all over the world, and Barça is being singled out for punishment, when in reality, La Masia provides youths with not only training, but also good living conditions and most importantly an actual academic education.
Maybe someone should ask those Cameroonian kids and their families how they actually feel about the transfers, or the chances the kids are getting (complete with education and living expenses), versus staying in Cameroon.
This is a masked decision by FIFA to set an example, making Barça look like an evil entity harbouring child slave labour, when the reality is nowhere near that.

 

That's a nice moral perspective but there is also one on football competition stand-point.

 

What football competition perspective?
So a kid wants to move to Barça's youth team, rather than play for a smaller team's youth team, because he will likely get better training, along with a probably better overall living standard, education etc..., and his parents are obviously allowing it... and FIFA wants to block that movement?
So FIFA should be deciding kid's futures and where they should stay? Despite the kid's and his parents' wishes?
If that's the case and the kids' current club wants to block it, then they're the ones actually forcing him to stay where he doesn't want to.

 

Don't see this holding up.

 

Barca dont need to buy players... in actual.

Their exisiting players can be use for another 2 years before expiry.

Can puyol take his words back?\

btw, more-than-a-club proving 'academic education' is a normal responsiblity when you sign a youngster. Not some GREAT Charity invented by Barca.

Try erase those basic stuff and see if young people want play for baaarca.

 

so how come FIFA didn't stop them earlier if it was against the rules all the time?

 

The crime needs to happen before you can convict someone.

It is like cops, they have to have sex with prostitutes before they can arrest them.

 

They REALLY don't want to sign a CB.

 

Fifa hand world cup to Qatar. The country with the highest rate of bringing under 18s to the country at Aspire.

Good job guys. Good job.

 

Anyone else read that the FIFA executive of transfers (or some job like that) is also a vice president for Madrid! :howler: well that explains that, not that it shouldn't stand or whatever

 

"Neither Real Madrid, nor myself as a member of Fifa, have anything to do with the sanction that's been handed to Barcelona," Jimenez told AS.

"My membership of the Players' Status Committee is unrelated to Florentino Perez and Madrid. My appointment was a proposal of the European Club Association (ECA), of which Barcelona are a member, too.

"In neither of the two meetings that I attended did we discuss a sanction for Barcelona.

"I want to make it clear that the Players' Status Committee does not have the power to hand out any sanctions. All we do is study the documents that we receive. I have nothing to do with Barcelona's sanction."

 

It's gonna be a weird summer for the press not getting a daily quote off a Barcelona player saying so and so should join them

 

Vertonghen was gonna go there according to the tabloids.
Can you take him off us?

 

it all started with the korean kid, Man u, Inter, And Madrid were after him, every team except Barca said either your parents come to live in the country they could not sign him, except Barca. That makes it an illegal advantage.

One of those teams were probably who called fifa.

Barca fans bring up the cesc case, but acutally his father moved to england with a job.

 

so david luiz will stay another season in chelsea

 

By some distance the biggest positive of this whole thing for Barca.

 

Cesc father moved with the Cesc and got a job because of his sons move. A usual loophole.

But the deal wasn't without controversy. It is just that Barcelona and Arsenal settled the deal out of arbitration and without FIFA.

Barcelona still had payments to make from the ridiculous Petit/Overmars transfer, so the two agrees on a 6m settlement which included Gio van Bronkhorst moving, if memory serves me.

About this particular Korean kid, I am sure Barcelona just as many clubs have gone against the article. For what it is worth I know of many children and their parents willing to give an arm and a leg to get their children into a modest Spanish club let alone Barcelona.

Make of that what you will.

And I reiterated, Qatar are taking In children from Africa and Cambodia to potentially represent them in World Cup 2022 (despite their disclaimers). One which was won under circumstances we all know very well.

Money talks, and somebody in FCB forgot to pay the bills. This is just an smear campaign by the same people as the Neymat campaign, until the appropriate kickback is paid.

 

u r comedy central real_madrid,i have Omani friends,u really must be the bottom of the barrel.
