UEFA probes 7 over FFP rules
Print Edition
UEFA announced on Thursday that it had opened probes against Monaco, AS Roma, Besiktas, Inter Milan, Liverpool and Russian club Krasnodar for suspected breaches of financial fair play rules.
In a statement, European football’s governing body said that the seven clubs’ accounts for 2012 and 2013 had shown a “break-even deficit”.
As a result, UEFA said that its Club Financial Control Body investigatory chamber had decided to launch formal investigations.
“These clubs will need to submit additional monitoring information during October and November upon the deadlines set by the CFCB, subsequent to which an additional communication will be made and conservatory measures may be imposed,” it said.
The principle of financial “fair play” is to prevent clubs accruing losses in excess of a 45-million euro (US$57.25 million) limit over the course of two seasons. The goal is to stop clubs from trying to buy success via transfers while also racking up huge debts that could threaten the health of the game.
UEFA sanctions for wrongdoers include withholding prize money from European competitions.
On Thursday, UEFA said that the CFCB had decided to withhold prize money from five clubs involved in this season’s European competitions due to “important overdue payables” to other clubs, employees or their national tax authorities.
The five clubs were Turkey’s Bursaspor, Romanian teams Cluj and Astra Giurgi, Montenegrin capital side Podgorica, and Lithuania’s Ekranas.
Big-spending Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain were among nine clubs sanctioned last season for overspending on player transfers and wages and fined 60 million euros.
“Overall, and including the clubs already mentioned above and the nine clubs which have signed settlement agreements last season, 115 clubs will remain under monitoring,” UEFA said.
