Pep Guardiola is confident Manchester City have a strong enough squad to cope if the club are banned from signing players for the next two transfer windows.
City face a FIFA ban after breaking rules related to the protection of youth players and third-party ownership, according to a report in the Sun newspaper.
A transfer ban for the Premier League champions would come less than a month after Chelsea were hit with the same sanction for 29 breaches of article 19 of FIFA’s regulations on the transfer and status of players. According to the Sun report, FIFA believes City have crossed the line, though, in regards to their relationship with FC Nordsjaelland and the Right To Dream football academy in Ghana that is also owned by the Danish side’s president, Tom Vernon.Last year, two players from the academy, Sierra Leone’s George Davies and Ghanaian Dominic Oduro, told Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten that they signed for City and played in youth matches before they turned 18.
City manager Pep Guardiola refused to be drawn on the report at his pre-match press conference on Friday.
