The ban on transfer of Mino Raiola "suspended" gives a new impetus to Matthijs de Ligt

Mino Raiola would have seen his transfer ban suspended this summer – a decision that could have huge consequences for Matthijs de Ligt and Paul Pogba.

The super agent – who counts among his clients Pogba, the Manchester United star, and captain De Ligt, captain of Ajax – was hit last month by a ban from handling transfers anywhere in the world.

Raiola had already been banned from working in Italy for three months. FIFA then accepted the ban that was to last until 9 August.

The decision would have prevented the agent from formally concluding any transactions in the English summer transfer slot, as the newspaper closes on August 8, one day before the lifting of its ban.

However, the Daily Mail claimed that the sports arbitration court had chosen to suspend the ban, a decision that will allow it to do business this summer.

And he could be ready for a few busy months with probably his biggest client, Pogba, badociated with a summer transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid.

Many European heavyweights are lining up to sign De Ligt after an impressive season that has led him to lead the Dutch Eredivisie team and the semifinals of the Champions League.

Despite the reported interest of Manchester United and Liverpool, Barcelona has long been considered the favorite of the Dutchman.

After an announcement of the ban in May, a FIFA statement said: "The chairman of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee today decided to extend the sanctions imposed by FIGC to intermediates Carmine (Mino) and Vincenzo Raiola so that they have a global effect.

"Carmine Raiola is suspended for a period of three months and Vincenzo Raiola for a period of two months."

Raiola immediately reacted to the decision and quickly criticized the Italian Football Federation.

"I guess the FIGC did not forgive me when I spread my criticisms of their role in the disastrous state of Italian football, as well as their role in the last episode of the racism problem and that my opinions could have influenced the evaluation of the subject. "
