Manchester City have joined Liverpool in being banned from signing academy players for tapping up two schoolboys – including one aged only 11. City were given the same length suspension as the Anfield club, a two-year transfer embargo on players registered with a rival Premier League or EFL side in the preceding 18 months – with the second year suspended for three years. They were also fined £300,000, £200,000 more than Liverpool, who were last month found guilty of tapping up one schoolboy footballer.


quote:

The 11-year-old City were found to have broken the rules trying to sign was a midfielder who joined them from Everton last year. The other player was a 15-year-old midfielder from Wolverhampton Wanderers. The Premier League also investigated their recruitment of 16-year-old goalkeeper Louie Moulden from Liverpool but that move has been cleared to proceed.



quote:

Manchester City will pay a fine of £300,000 and will be prohibited from registering any academy players in the under-10 to under-18 age range who have been registered with a Premier League or EFL club in the preceding 18 months. This ban will last for two years. The period of this ban from 30 June 2018 onwards will be suspended for three years to be activated in the event of any similar breach by the club


Not like they use them anyway

So its really a 1 yr ban. That means if they find a 13 yr old this summer they can't sign him until he's 14.

Only players that have registered with other EFL or EPL clubs in the prior 18 months.

Not exactly the end of the world.

Just admit you're a closet city fan.

Also, you need to come up with new material because you've used the sixth thing far too often, which is especially ironic given it was uniteds position for most of the year. Variety is the spice of life, homey.
