Galatasaray failed to comply with financial fair play, and was punished by UEFA. The European football federation does not tolerate, when the club expenses are higher than their income, and that’s what the situation was still with the current champion of Turkey. Now this can not be for one season in European competition. The penalty will take effect when the “Galata” will take place to ensure the start in the Champions League or the Europa League.
The current season is disastrous for Galatasaray both in terms of sport and organization. Twenty champions Turkey ranks only 5th place in the table with a loss of sixteen points behind Fenerbache. In defense of the title they have more opportunities, but the team from the Bosphorus now appeared another problem.
punishment from UEFA is not new, because already in 2014 “Galata” has been punished for failure to comply with financial fair play . According to the rules of the club expenses may not exceed his income, and in this particular case it was broken once again. In January special report showed that an acceptable level of loss Galatasaray was greatly exceeded, but the recommendations issued by UEFA compensate and bring to obtain liquidity have not been made. In this situation, the only solution was to exclude from the cups.
This penalty will apply in the next season if the team qualifies for the Champions League or Europa League. If this does not happen, it will be postponed for another year. In the previous week, Galatasaray were knocked out of the tournament after the second tie with Lazio.
It is worth noting that this is not the first punishment from UEFA aimed at Turkish clubs. Four years ago banned the game in the cups for a similar reason got Bursaspor, Besiktas and Gaziantepspor. Fenerbache in turn could occur in international competitions because of match-fixing.
