REAL TO APPEAL TO CAS

Real Madrid have reacted swiftly to FIFA's decision to uphold their two-window transfer ban, revealing they intend to lodge their appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

A statement on the club's website read: “Real Madrid regrets the decision on the grounds that is profoundly unfair and contrary to the most elementary principles of penal law.

“The club will make a corresponding appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, requesting full revocation of the same, with the full conviction of obtaining a fully favourable decision before that body.”
