Two Spanish clubs banned from signing players until 2026
FIFA punishes Rayo Vallecano and Mallorca for three transfer windows
Rayo Vallecano and Mallorca are banned by FIFA from signing players during three transfer windows, that is, until 2026.
This decision took Mallorca’s management by surprise.
“This is an administrative issue that has already been resolved. It is not true, it is false that we cannot sign players during three transfer windows,” he responded to Marca . According to the Spanish newspaper, Rayo Vallecano were completely unaware of the sanction.
FIFA, contacted by Marca, claimed that the punishments were due to the lack of payment of the solidarity mechanism. Mallorca has already shown an interest in regularizing the situation, unlike Rayo Vallecano . As soon as they pay the outstanding amount, the two clubs will be able to register players again.
