Kardzhali took a breather: FIFA lifted the transfer ban on Arda  - 1

The World Football Federation (FIFA) lifted the transfer ban that was imposed on Arda (Kardzhali) at the beginning of the month, a BTA check of the headquarters' system shows, Topsport reported.

Thus, the club from the Rhodope Mountains has no problems making incoming and outgoing deals this summer and can be active on the market during the new campaign - both with foreigners when participating in European club tournaments, and in our country.

In fact, this was also the interpretation in the FIFA registration system from May 2 - the punishment was to remain in force until the case was resolved and only after 10 days the problem was removed. Such bans come for delayed minimum payments or a requirement of solidarity in transfers to a player or to a club. Four after FIFA's decision, Arda issued a statement on the matter, and it turned out that it was about unpaid fees in the amount of just over 1,700 euros.

There are currently 11 cases with Bulgarian clubs in the FIFA system, with a new one with the FC Krumovgrad team, which was imposed three days ago - on May 9th. Thus, the cases that the Krumovgrad team must resolve by the start of the summer transfer period, if they want to attract new players with contracts, are four.

There are also penalties for Beroe (Stara Zagora), Botev (Plovdiv), Bdin 1923 (Vidin), Lovech, as well as three cases of the Vereya (Stara Zagora) team that collapsed in the amateur groups.
