Mess in sight, because of Cenk Gonen: FIFA leaves Malaga unable to sign, which will turn to TAS

Málaga will try to avoid the sanction, which would leave them without being able to sign any player until the summer of 2023, claiming that the notification was sent to the wrong email adress of the club, as we got informed at SportDirect Radio

Problems in Martiricos. Malaga has been notified from FIFA that it will be three markets without being able to sign, as reported from Turkey this Tuesday. Málaga was ordered to pay more than 770,000 euros to Cenk Gonen and has not yet paid that debt. Given the refusal of the blue and white club to face the payment, FIFA has decided to punish him without being able to go to the transfer window until the summer of 2023. From Malaga they are reluctant to comply with a sanction of such caliber. Internal sources of the blue and white club state that they sent the notification to an email that was not even the official of the Malaga entity. Therefore, they will try to do everything possible to avoid having to assume consequences. These days they will send a letter to FIFA to study the possibility of resorting to the CAS. They classify it as another ‘success’ of the old directive.

Another option that they handle in the La Rosaleda offices is to pay that amount to Gonen to be able to forget about this matter and then resort to the Arbitration Court for Sport to get the amount paid for that fine returned. Malaga is working hard to avoid this sanction, they will pay if necessary, although the club believes that due to the postal mess it will not be necessary and FIFA will come to its senses.
