Manchester City are facing a potential two-window transfer ban should they be found guilty of breaching regulations following the signing of Benjamin Garre.
As reported by James Ducker of the Daily Telegraph, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is set to deliver its verdict in the case next week. Argentinian club Velez Sarsfield have complained that City tried to lure Garre away from them when he was 15 before signing him days after his 16th birthday.
If CAS was to rule in favour of Velez, then City would potentially be unable to register players for their squad for the next two windows.
