The FIFA Disciplinary Committee has lifted the transfer ban on Mohun Bagan Super Giant, allowing the club to sign new players for the upcoming season.
The ban, imposed on May 5 due to non-payment of dues to Australian striker Jason Cummings’ former club Central Coast Mariners, was revoked after the club took prompt action.
Mohun Bagan submitted a detailed 107-page document to FIFA and responded to two subsequent queries from the governing body.
“Mohun Bagan submitted a 107-page document to FIFA and thereafter there were two queries, and finally the disciplinary committee has sent a mail lifting the ban,” a Mohun Bagan Super Giant official told PTI.
In contrast to Mumbai City FC, whose similar ban took nearly three months to be lifted, Mohun Bagan managed to resolve the issue within a month.
The transfer window opened on June 9, and the club can now proceed unhindered with its team-building efforts for the new season.
This development comes just days after new president Debasish Dutta and general secretary Srinjoy Bose took charge of the club.
