Athletic Bilbao received excellent news after FIFA officially lifted the club's transfer ban. A few days ago, the world football headquarters sanctioned the Basque team for “various violations“ at the management level and banned it from registering new players until January 2028.
The decision caused a serious response in the Spanish media and put the club in an extremely difficult situation. However, the sanction has now been lifted. According to information from “El Chiringuito”, FIFA has confirmed that Athletic has fulfilled the requirements for removal from the so-called “black list”, and within five days the club will be officially removed from it.
Thus the “lions“ will again be able to make incoming transfers without restrictions.
