Financial Fair Play has arrived

[Royal]

And I for one, am glad to see the financial bullies and giant clubs being stopped so that we may return one day to having parity in European football.
Here's a list of the clubs that are being investigated:
FK Borac Banja Luka (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
FK Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
FK Zeljeznicar (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
PFC CSKA Sofia (Bulgaria)
HNK Hajduk Split (Croatia)
NK Osijek (Croatia)
Atletico Madrid (Spain)
Malaga (Spain)
Maccabi Netanya (Israel)
FK Shkendija 79 (Macedonia)
Floriana FC (Malta)
FK Budunost Podgorica (Montenegro)
FK Rudar Pjevlja (Montenegro)
Ruch Chorzow (Poland)
Sporting Clube de Portugal (Portugal)
Dinamo Bucharest (Romania)
FC Rapid Bucharest (Romania)
FC Vaslui (Romania)
Rubin Kazan (Russia)
FK Partizan (Serbia)
FK Vojvodina (Serbia)
Eskisehirspor (Turkey)
Fenerbahce (Turkey)

All the big spending teams we expected, aren't FIFA doing a great thing here.

No need to investigate the teams paying players £200k a week then?

This part of the investigation is only relating to large debts not declared to UEFA by the relevant clubs after June 30th of this year. It is not the only sanction which will be put in place and OP should have made that more clear tbh. Fuss over nothing as it stands.

I will be overjoyed if there is ever a £80,000 p/w salary cap, that's the only way things will change.

Not if it's enforced across the board.
