Algerian outfit, Mouloudia Club de Alger have been slapped with a transfer ban by FIFA for failing to pay Dream FC after signing striker Joseph Esso.
Alger signed Esso on a three years deal from the Ghana Premier League in April 2021 in a deal worth around 170,000 Euros, an amount they refused to pay plus interest of 5% p.a. as of March 22, 2022 to Dreams.
The Still Believe side’s administrative manager, Ameenu Shardow alerted FIFA about the club’s refusal to pay the money and recommended stricter sanctions.
FIFA Player Status Committee confirmed the transfer ban imposed on MC Alger in a letter to Shardow as below;
“Please find below the confirmation from FIFA regarding the transfer ban issued against MC Algiers, which has been implemented today June 20, 2022.”
The world football governing body has announced that the said ban shall remain up until the due amount is paid and for the maximum duration of three entire and consecutive registration periods.
It has also instructed the Ghana FA to ensure full compliance with the ban.
