FIFA Hands Persepolis Transfer Ban
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Persepolis football club has been banned by world governing body FIFA from signing players at the transfer windows.
The Iranian football club has been banned due to unpaid debts to its former striker Mario Budimir.
Persepolis must pay 500,000 euros to the Croatian player to lift the ban.
The Iranian team, who has won Iran league in the past four years, has been in the AFC Champions League final twice in three years – 2018 and 2020.
