- Cologne's one-year transfer ban imposed by FIFA was provisionally suspended on Friday by the Court of Arbitration for Sport as it considers an appeal lodged by the club, the Bundesliga outfit said in a statement.
Cologne were banned from signing players for next season after the world governing body accused the club of encouraging Slovenian 17-year-old Jaka Cuber Potocnik to break his contract with Olimpija Ljubljana and join them in January 2022. A FIFA tribunal had fined Cologne 51,750 euros , banned them from signing new players in the next two transfer windows and suspended Potocnik for four months.The German club said Potocnik left Olimpija because of “numerous breaches of contract” and did not incite him to leave his former team.
