Barcelona has already been hit with a transfer ban after breaching regulations when signing young players, but rival Real insists it has complied fully with FIFA’s rules when conducting its own under-age deals.
Real said it has shown “extraordinary diligence” during the transfer and registration of the 51 cases of foreign minors that are being investigated.
The Spanish club issued a lengthy statement confirming the governing body’s request for documents relating to the various deals taking place over the last five years, though it did not name any of the players.
